I've used supabase before, and it's cool, rlly cool, but I don't know sql and previously i vibe coded the sql.
Also i have a question; if I host my own db with postgres or whatever , it will be hosted on my pc right? So there'll be no 'pro plan' needed or whatever

I love using relational db's with nextjs but as the previous response said, it depends on your usecase. I love postgres but then i love mongodb if i didn't have a strong need for relationships.

Y'all have any good no-sql suggestions? Im down to learn sql for supabase tho, also if I make some money with my app (hopefully possible with free tier of supabase), i can handle supabase pro costs
