Disclaimer: I work on Firebase but I'm always speaking for myself on Hacker News.
This looks really cool! Honestly I think the Firebase comparison may be throwing some people off here because this is a SQL-based system, which means there's a huge base of existing tools/techniques/knowledge to build from.
I like any tool which makes it easier to build an app. It's 2020 and we still start every app like this:
* Pick a database
* Spin up a server
* Connect the DB to the server
* Create a REST API for the server so the client can talk to the DB
* Somehow make that secure enough
* Write a bunch of CRUD code on the client
What a waste of time! Glad to see people like Supabase taking on this problem as well.
