Merging a MASSIVE PR to in a couple of hours that:
◆ Adds features like UTM builder, password protection, archiving links, filtering & sorting links, etc.
◆ Refactors the codebase to switch from Redis → MySQL for storing link metadata
...wish me luck 🤞

Here’s the link to the PR if you wanna follow along and pray for me 🙏
It started out as a simple creature but quickly evolved into a massive beast of a PR 🥴

It’s the result of a week’s worth of after-hours grind and (sometimes) sleepless nights 🥲

How did you choose to switch to PScale? DX, cost, latency?
Upstash's pricing model seems unique, curious how it scales

Good question! It’s mainly cause I needed a relational DB, nothing to do with cost/DX (though I really love Prisma’s DX 👀): twitter.com/steventey/stat
I’m still keeping key value data for links on Upstash though cause latency-wise Redis is still the 🐐

Replying to @TejasKumar_ @dubdotsh and @xata
Because I wanted to do link filtering and Redis isn’t so good for bidirectional relationships 
went with Prisma + MySQL cause I was already using it for auth & user management but definitely wanna try out Xata in the future! Have heard great things from @nutlope!
