It was a bummer. Everything seemed great, I just literally couldn’t use it.
I’d love to hear others experiences with the PG features. I could see it replacing Digital ocean for my use cases (if it works reliably)
We know this because we have metrics on how many people created and then destroyed Postgres DBs without successfully connecting an app to them. When we show this to investors we'll explain that the improvement was a big win for our "go to market efforts". But you should know it was really just a bug fix for something we disappointed you with.
That made me chuckle :)
I encountered some of those same postgres issues and so far have been only running a staging database on Fly. This comment is motivation for me to finish moving my real DB over from google.
P.S. I was running my own fork of your postgres container so I could include postgis, and this probably made management even more brittle -- I'm really happy to see https://github.com/fly-apps/postgres-ha/pull/44#issuecomment... landed!
