    I love Zed and have been using it for years. I’ve been especially excited about multi-agent support—it feels like it could be a genuinely powerful model. That said, the current UX …

    I couldn’t find the pricing page on the website. It might be because I’m looking at it on my phone and the nav item doesn’t show on small screens? Is the pricing transparent and, i…

    Thanks! Followup question: After you "eject" the app and start paying AWS directly but continue using porter, is the experience more like the archived repo? Or, is it still Porter …

    Very cool! As someone pointed out, your github repo says it was archived: https://github.com/porter-dev/porter-archive Naively, I would think Porter cloud would just be a managed v…

    FWIW, I've been using Elixir in production since 2016 and haven't found I've needed to learn any erlang. For context, we use Elixir for our backend and serve around ~100/rps over w…

    We had looked into Quill but decided to use Threads.com. Considering how inconsiderate Quill's shut down was, it was a good decision for that reason alone. For anyone looking at al…

    We adopted it 4 years ago and love it. As for training people, I taught my non-technical co-founder Elixir for some backend scripts he needed to write. He found it much simpler to …

    I'm glad to hear this! Using Remirror worries me because it injects an abstraction between our code and PM. However, when I look at your docs, it's not clear it's a different in ap…

    I had a similar experience with Atlas. At least 1.5 years ago, Atlas felt like a enterprise company trying to do a SaaS. They used the same sales person driven approach I associate…

    We also left compose but left to move to mLab. When Compose was still MongoHQ, we were really impressed by their support. In the last few years, we became incredibly unsatisfied. m…

    In the comments, you mention how Quill is extensible. Does Quill's extensibility enable the creation of a hierarchical level that resembles an HTML element? From what I can tell, Q…

    What are the performance characteristics of realtime push? Does the performance of inserts slow down with the number of subscriptions to change feeds? Or, is insert performance unr…

    Congrats on releasing Quill! I've been following the development since it was called "Scribe" and I'm excited it's released. I noticed there seems to be support for block level for…

    I've also shipped an Ember app and a Knockout App. To me, there's no comparison: Ember development was easier and produced a faster app and a better organized code base. Once my ap…
