The TODOS mini application at data-star.dev is slow and doesn't work correctly for me (checking/unchecking items isn't reliable). To me, this highlights one common problem I've seen with frameworks that insist on doing everything on the server.

UPDATE: I have no idea why fly.io hate the TODO, but https://example.andersmurphy.com/ is a decent example (that's way more fun) that's running now. I'm commenting out that demo until I have more time to investigate. If y'all find other ones that are acting up please let me know. Looks likes it might be time to actual host this thing on a real server.

I have the fastest internet in the whole country and I couldn't add new todo, also deleting the todo item is very slow.

Agreed, I have gig internet and a hardwire connection and still get more lag than I'd want from a web app.

Potentially could be solved with some client side cache but still..

Yeah something is DEFINITELY up. This is not the norm, we haven't seen this before. Fly.io free tier is not happy and I'm not sure why (we've been on it for years at this point). I'm gonna disable until I can dig deeper. Have day job stuff to attend to, this is not my ideal Friday afternoon :P

If you're on shared CPU you probably got throttled. Dig into the grafana dashboard and you'll see it somewhere...it's not nearly prominent enough in their UI.

Yeah I'm seeing that too. We're getting ready for V1 and I probably missed a test around the Todo. My fault, didn't think we'd get hit by hackernews on a free shared fly.io server. I'll look into it now

Oh I know what happens, the todo app was removed from the front page.
