The people against this on X are probably not building a business. They wouldn't be giving PlanetScale money anytime soon.

I don’t fall out with the change at all, but being given 1 month to migrate doesn’t seem well thought out, there will definitely be some avoidable negative sentiment related to that.

These are potential paying users not freeloaders to evict.

This is the only real problem I have with how they handled the situation. But it's a big problem.

Whether or not these folks on free plans are ever going to convert to paid, they trusted PlanetScale to serve as a critical building block for their project/business. I think the least they could do is ease the transition by offering them a reasonable amount of time to offboard.

I personally would never trust critical infra to a company that has ever abruptly terminated a product offering with only 1 month notice.

The mental model that you get critical infra for free is wrong.

[selestify]

How many months is to be expected by industry standards?

Come on. Its a free offering. As the saying goes, you get what you pay for!
