Its not about vercel or fly.io. Its about openstatus dev

Their migration timeline from their blog:

1. August 2, 48 hours after public launch 400+ users

2. August 20, migrate from planetscale to turso (sqlite)

3. Oct 29, migrate from vercel to fly.io, migrate from nextjs to hono, also mentioned change to bunjs.

This is seems like they tend to (sorry I'm judging here):

1. move fast break things or

2. don't have a plan before launch day or

3. only chasing the latest tech buzz.

We are trying, breaking and learning.

And you were right we did not have plan before launch, we wanted to build something that bring us excitement. and we are planing more about the future, since the project took off

FYI we still both have full time job

Sorry for the harsh words.

Obviously I can't speak about excitement but if you're worried about cost, you might want to research aws grant or things like that.

In 2019 my company invest in a startup, while doing IT due diligence I found out they get $100K AWS grant to be used for 2 years. Fyi this company business is writing articles about baby and almost no revenue at that time.
