Supabase Storage: now supports the S3 protocol

This is great news. Now I can utilize any CDN provider that supports S3. Like bunny.net [1] which has image optimization, just like Supabase does but with better pricing and features.

I have been developing with Supabase past two months. I would say there are still some rough corners in general and some basic features missing. Example Supabase storage has no direct support for metadata [2][3].

Overall I like the launch week and development they are doing. But more attention to basic features and little details would be needed because implementing workarounds for basic stuff is not ideal.

Bunny is a great product. I'm glad this release makes that possible for you and I imagine this was one of the reasons the rest of the community wanted it too

This is what we spend most of our time doing, but you won't hear about it because they aren't HN-worthy.

> no direct support for metadata

Fabrizio tells me this is next on the list. I understand it's frustrating, but there is a workaround - store metadata in the postgres database (I know, not ideal but still usable). We're getting through requests as fast as we can.

This is indeed at the very top of the list :)

I've not done a whole lot with S3 but is this due to it being easy to sync between storage providers that support S3 or something?

I'm more used to Azure Blob Storage than anything, so I'm OOL on what people do other than store files on S3.
