Who actually uses these products,
and what made them stay.

The Supabase Indie Hacker

A solo developer or indie hacker building a SaaS product where Supabase is the entire backend. They chose Supabase because it gives them Postgres, auth, storage, and real-time out of the box — and they can ship their MVP in a weekend instead of a month. They write SQL directly, use Row Level Security because they have to, and treat the Supabase dashboard as their admin panel. They are building a business alone and Supabase is the co-founder that handles the backend.

The Supabase Full-Stack Developer

A full-stack developer or indie hacker who uses Supabase as their backend and thinks of it as their database, their auth layer, their file storage, and their API layer at once. They came from Firebase and wanted Postgres. Or they came from setting up their own Postgres and wanted the tooling. Either way they arrived at Supabase and found a backend they could move on from thinking about. They write SQL fluently. They use Row Level Security. They are deeply comfortable in the Supabase dashboard. They have strong feelings about their Supabase tables.
