Firebase alternative recommendation based on your experience?

I'd look into MongoDB Atlas for the database itself and Google Cloud Storage or AWS S3 for storing images and videos with the link to their sources stored in the database.

Supabase is often mentioned. It's open source and has a free tier, though it is VC driven so I'm sure it'll enshittify at some point.

You can selfhost supabase really easily with docker.

i'm avoiding to use SQL on my current project, since supabase is using postgresql, it's a no no. i've tried it tho

+1 for mongodb. It has a 16MB limit but the GridFS API will chunk bigger files for you, so it's transparent.
