Zeit focused on all types of applications when it started, not just static frontend and FaaS. I wish it would return to supporting apps beyond JAMstack.

They wrote about it on their blog: https://fly.io/blog/making-datasets-fly-with-datasette-and-f...
But that was not the reason given - strange to cause such confusion.
