This seems cool, but beware that Fly's other products are not exactly models of stability and polish.

API downtime is a semi-frequent occurrence, as are transient API errors and slowness.

I've also had a ticket open with support for weeks due to rampant billing issues. For instance, a destroyed instance still shows up in my usage report as actively accruing billed time, and at a rate faster than is even possible (something like 2 hours for every 1 actual hour that has passed.)

They've released two new products in the AI space, this and Phoenix.new, and my worry is that they are focused on new products over making what they have good and reliable.

yeah nobody should use this based on reliability and support alone
