Scrolled to the article, finished reading, looked at the URL and wondered if insurers had gotten a lot more serious with their tech writing :)
Honestly though, thanks for this. I had wandered into Firebase a number of times, and always found hydrant not ball. After reading through and using it for a bit, the same problems you mentioned (why is 1MB the limit? Why isn't that abstracted away with gracefully degrading performance?) ran fast and ran far.
Did not know there was a better one. Would you say it's worth building on, still? Or is it at risk of cancellation by the Cube?
