I think it's fair criticism and certainly an area where TrailBase can improve (it's still young). FWIW, I used to avoid the "Firebase" comparison and be more descriptive with a long list of features. That confused a lot of folks. Firebase-like seemed to get the rough product-ballpark across more effectively. If I had to guess, I'd say Supabase probably arrived at a similar conclusion.

Either way, they are all rather broad products and many users only use subsets. Thanks for speaking up, appreciated.

Fwiw I changed my mind and I now think that your positioning is fine (see adjacent comment). Don't make it harder for people to grok at the behest of HN purists like me! :-)
