Only with Vitess (rec Planetscale to get started), haven’t used MySQL without at all (mostly been using Postgres before that) 😅

Gotcha - have found Postgres consistently running into connection pooling issues, for us, we made the switch to MySQL with Vitess using Planetscale, immediately saw 10-12x improvement in API performance across all requests – would recommend, considering it’s early on rn

Hey all, thought I’d introduce myself on here 👋 I’m Moaaz – software engineer & designer focused on dist systems, scaling dbs, GraphQL/Rest APIs, chatbots, frontends w/ React, React Native, client/server rendering. Super interested to see bsky being built & the technical conversations around it!

What was the underlying issue?

just setting up my bsky…
