Why would I use Supabase instead of Firebase since the latter is more mature and has richer ecosystem?

[v] Can host myself

[v] Can access from China (since Firebase is blocked)

[v] ...anything else?

(Btw they should put this in FAQ or something)

Supabase developer here. Coming from Firebase myself, the biggest driver for me can be summed up with: relational data. PostgreSQL rocks.
Postgres is more mature than Firebase
Firebase doesn't even have good search support and it's a Google product...
That has always annoyed me, the one thing that isn't integrated into Firebase...
Wen Bo from the Supabase Realtime here!

Also, every single person on the Supabase team actively does support so if you would like world class support than look no further!
