hey yclurker, Supabase founder here.

I'm sorry we haven't delivered a better self-hosting experience. This is clearly something we could do better. As I mentioned in your link[1], we're targeting a release of our CLI in Q1 (last week of march).

> its a been long time since their launch

It has been 8 months since our alpha launch*, and just over 1 month since our beta. I hope that sets some context, because personally I think we (and the community) have delivered a lot in that time. I'm very proud of what our small team has been able deliver.

> The product is not self hostable

Note that Supabase is self-hostable, it's just lacking documentation, which we will rectify in Q1.

@kiwicopple : I'm really sorry to say this, I understand you try your best to sound reasonable every time. It's just that you alone believe that we can't see past your replies. But it is pretty evident that you wont make Supabase self hostable. Dude, even proprietary closed products provide docker / docker-compose by default in their repos. Quite honestly, shame on Supabase for setting such a shady example.

In the link you shared I mention how to get the docker-compose file by running `supabase eject`

I probably can't satisfy you, but I'll make our intentions very clear to everyone else reading this:

Sorry for the lack of documentation - we will add more docs and make everything easier to use before a "Launch week" that we have planned on the last week of March.

From your commit in README.md

>> You can emulate Supabase using `docker-compose` by following these steps inside the `./docker` folder.

What does even emulating mean for an open source product ? Why do I want to emulate and not run the real thing.

>> I probably can't satisfy you

Dude, if you can show me one another product which claims to be "open source" that can't be self hosted I will admit it.
