(Not the author but I work in real-time voice.) WebSockets don't really translate to actual GPU load, since they spend a ton of time idling. So strictly speaking, you don't need a …

Agreed. I used Supabase for a fairly simple project and felt like I had to know a lot about Postgres to implement anything. If you’re building something yourself, I feel like Fireb…
