I'm not a user of Fly.io. I can't help but notice how remarkable the effect of open communication on potential end users like me. I remember reading about their reliability problems on HN some time ago. That biased my view of the company. After reading this, the open communication and transparency restored my trust in them, and would make them again a potential candidate for future projects. Because now I know that they acknowledge the problem and that they are trying to improve things.

mrkurt[1] is also active here and has been very transparent in his comments about scaling issues.

Similar to this post he commented a week ago:

> In a year we'll either be ahead of those, or not growing anymore due to ongoing capacity issues. I'm hoping for the former.

I am rooting for Fly! Great team. The company reminds me of early HashiCorp.
