Cool! I haven't heard of Turso until now but it looks great. Why choose it over Planetscale, though?
I've been looking at HTMX + Go for some time but I just don't know if it's worth it over React which I already know. Is it really more productive, or is it simply a ideology/hype thing? I'm also a Go fan because it values simplicity, which I think we should all strive for, so the HTMX + Go combo appeals to me, even though I haven't looked at HTMX as I mentioned. Having to use C# and TypeScript at work, I start to see the real appeal of simplicity more and more... I'm becoming a grug brained dev :O
To be honest, while I have heard of Planetscale I never really looked into it. It does seem really interesting, but as you can probably gather from my answer I'm really into simplicity and ease of use. And since Turso is powered by LibSQL (SQLite fork) it is dead simple to use. Their pricing is also very predictable which and with a generous free tier.
HTMX + Go is such a great combo for those who don't necessarily enjoy JS/TS. I just want a good user experience and also a good dev experience. And for me, HTMX + Go is that. I can create reactive websites while working in my preferred language. I'm also shipping minimal amount of data to the user so and using as little CPU and memory as I can.
