Given that the docs say (somewhere) that the stack is thought to keep things cheap and simple... a couple of questions arise:
-
Why is Clerk the default? It's a paid app, and on top of that you kind of "spread" your user info in two databases instead of keeping it all in your own. It also prevents us from using docker... I might be missing something, but, why not going with something like BetterAuth or nextAuth instead?
-
Do we really need sooo many packages? I mean, for a new app, do we really need posthog + google analytics + ... + sentry ...? or even feature flag?
