In a recent (abandoned) project, I used Reflect: https://reflect.net/

It was by far the most developer-friendly experience I've had trying to implement collaborative editing. The one thing it didn't have that YJS did was built-in undo/redo.

what about PartyKit?

okay looks like partykit hides some extra metered costs with a call us button

reflect's pricing seems a lot easier to understand!

just trying to think how this will work with cloudflare + fastify

Interesting, hadn't heard of PartyKit. FWIW Reflect seems to be pivoting sometime over the next 6 months, and they're going to open source their code, along with instructions on how to self-host. So if you're looking for long-term cost reduction, that might not be a bad choice.
