PHIZI is such a uniquely talented youtuber. It's really hard to put in word while I love his style of narrating so much, maybe the way he write his script or the way his talk? Check out this list, I already played probably half of these games and loved them. www.youtube.com/watch?v=3bMP...

After some digging, here are a couple thing I found out 1. Network latency between vercel and my db is not that bad 2. Bottle-neck is in my query Same query for handle: mcuban.bsky.social - Vercel -> Hetzner: 600 ms - Hetzner -> Hetzner: 540ms - Local - Local: 250ms

Tuan Cao @tuancao.me · 25/12/2024

Which is one faster for you? whichpack.com or beta.whichpack.com 1) whichpack.com is Hosted in Vercel 2) beta.whichpack.com is Hosted entirely on Hetzner on $5 vps Please help me test it. I thought beta will be faster since the web app is closer to the db (also host on the same instance)? But 👇

Migrated my db server from Neon (19$/month) to a VPS running on Hetzner ($5) month. Data migration is done and not that difficult. Server load is pretty good. Let's see how it goes when more users visit whichpack.com #buildinpublic #dev

Traffic of whichpack.com after launch is stabilizing around 120 visitors per day. I would say it's pretty good compared to my previous products. (And... it didn't even exist 8 days ago) Thing can be improved: 42% bounce rate is pretty high #buildinpublic

#dev Suppose that I need to copy all of my data (4 GBytes +) of a postgresql db from Neon.tech (neon - server less postgresql) to a standard postgresql db running on a vps. What is the easiest way. Note the db is quite large, 4.4 GB.
