An example of US VCs squandering on scooter startups is bike sharing in China?

Squandered is a bit harsh. I don't have skin in the game either way, but I wouldn't be surprised if there is a profitable business to be built once the dust settles. It can be hard to know in advance just how big that market would be, and how defensible.

We tried cognito (bizarrely hard to use), Auth0 (mildly hard to use), and Userfront (easy to use) for authentication + rbac + multi-tenancy. We also looked at Warrant and Oso, and my takeaway was that they shine for more complex use cases, which wasn't our particular need.

Yes, it is our fault for believing Netlify had contingency plans as hosting is their core business. We're fixing this mistake now so that our customers don't have the same experience.

We use(d) Netlify for the frontend. I agree, our mistake was believing Netlify could be used for more than toy websites and took care of backup plans for us. Clearly they do not.
