sure, it's definitely not optimized at all rn. was just playing around, but wasn't watching the bandwidth at all and suprised the dashboard itself was eating so much of it. i'm streaming a response back from openai back into convex. would that trigger heavy reads on the dashboard? i can fix the top query, i already know why that one is a problem, but not sure how the dashboard reads work.

concurrency limits

can someone tell me about this concurrency? is that we can't let the user subscribe to same query after reaching the limits?

It's great to see Convex creating a lot

It's great to see Convex creating a lot of content, but I feel like 80 percent of it is geared toward people who already know how to use Convex. It should be the other way around—you should focus more on beginner-friendly content to reach a wider audience. Sure, it might attract more free-tier users at first, but in the long run, it’ll be more beneficial. Just sharing my thoughts.

client subscription duration

Is there any time out on a live subscription? or is it indefinite, assuming no network issues.

I switched to directly querying against

I switched to directly querying against the api routes (so it goes client http req -> vercel server -> convex http routes) which has improved speed, but it does not use the user table in my db (instead the one in the component) which is not ideal :/

I'm kinda curious, are you trying to migrate to convex, or use convex and postgress together? if you're doing the first, I can probably help you with it (because I'm bored and curious), for the second, there are a few things that you can do like installing a webhook, and when ever something happens accross your API, you can make calls on, maybe something like supabase can help you with it...

oops this should have been a thread all along

Notice I said in production. I have cause issues on dev before. I have a client that has 700+ sql server databases for a single product. Used to be on only one cluster. To fix a problem across databases manually to each one would take forever. Query took 10 minutes. This was at the end of an outage that was hours and customers were on the war path. I think the non-controversial usage is dev. If it is really bad to do unscripted updates - there would not be a grid editor

I just added Hono to the http-configuration here, and it seems nice. However, I am previously using http.routes, and these stop working. Is it impossible to mix and match Hono and the default routing scheme?

Hey guys, I'm looking to build a digital product marketplace but I can't figure out the best way to handle payments. Stripe Connect is good but it requires every seller to go through KYC, which can discourage a lot of sellers when starting out. I've seen dozen other marketplaces not require KYC until a certain threshold. Does anyone have any experience building a marketplace here? Thanks alot 🙂

A friend of mine has a Convex project he's developed which he wants to transfer into my Convex account. Can that be done?
I tried asking AI inside Convex...

There is currently an option INSIDE CONVEX within Project Settings named "Transfer Project". What does this do?...
