Show HN: Cloudboost.io – open-source BaaS platform just like Firebase

I suggest whoever made this website try opening it on a phone. It’s really, really bad. I could make a better mobile friendly site in a weekend. Also, I found no link to the source code which is odd for an open source project. The pricing is pretty steep too. Considering the quality of that website and the hefty list of Fortune 500 companies listed as being users of this product, it gave me the impression that this is a scam site with a fake product.

https://supabase.io on the other hand is a great open source project working to be a replacement to firebase for those interested.

Yeah I had similar thoughts. A lot of incongruency there. What irritates me is why open source projects like this have such a disregard for basic ergonomics while also holding the idea that they're a suitable replacement for vastly more polished incumbents.
