Thanks,
My tech stack consists of: - Ruby on Rails - Vue.js + Inertia.js - PostgreSQL - TailwindCSS with Shadcn Vue UI
the app runs on Hetzner VM deployed via Kamal.
I'm planning to do a detailed blog post on the tech stack soon.
I found initial customers by manual outreach within my network.
I don't see any potential issue with Supabase. Both names are drastically different and we serve different markets. Besides, there are plenty of other products name with "supa" prefix.

I recently moved a couple of Rails projects to a VPS using Dokploy and couldn't be happier. Apart from the cost savings the bump in available resources is a big plus. It is astonishing how Heroku still gets away with 512 mb memory for $25/m
background: I have been self-hosting apps on VPS for a while now but just started using a tool

Working on https://fileboost.dev –– A Ruby on Rails Active Storage plugin that is a plug and play gem for image transformation without making any code changes.
Being a Ruby on Rails consultant, I frequently see active storage transformation becoming a bottleneck for web servers by eating up resources and making them sweat.
I built Fileboost to solve this problem for my customers. I'd love any feedback.

I'm glad to see efforts towards improving Ruby on Rails security, it honestly keeps the framework still the most viable choice.

Yaak is great, I have been using it since the launch Greg.
I'm kind of curious why you picked Tauri over Electron for this one? I know one big benefit is smaller binaries but I'd love to know your thoughts behind this decision.

I have been doing Ruby on Rails for ~14 years but ~10 years ago I was confused and I picked up Nodejs thinking it is the future of software development.
It only took me a couple of months to realized what Ruby on Rails offers & the vibrant ecosystem it has. I quickly pivoted back to it and never looked back. I'm very happy with that decision.
Take that plunge and you will not regret it later.

Thanks for mentioning this gem (literally).
I moved my projects to GoodJob and it has been smooth sailing.
