Update: looks like my traffic spiked a bit and FaunaDB disabled my account and deleted my data from this project 😅
Glad I didn’t share this approach—I guess extortion is one way to upsell from the free tier :eyeroll:

@cthos found this, in retrospect 👼
@zachleat nuking your data and disallowing access to it is a bit...extreme? They _could_ have just disabled read/write access (or just write access, if they want to be polite).
That's a ... bold ... strategy
@cthos they were very polite 😬
@cthos @zachleat afaik they don't have backups readily available either (in the UI, free plan) - had to roll my own when I realized.
I used to be quite fond of their service, never ran into issues, even with multi-user production apps. I guess enshittification continues, and that we're all better off going back to mySql on our own boxes for things that matter 😢
@zachleat Interested to know what might be your replacement solution! Please let us know! :)
