Been a happy user of MS in production for https://notado.app for many years, and someone from MS even reached out to me a few years ago thanking me for my write-up of syncing Postgres records to MS[1], saying they used it as a reference for something they later shipped.

I haven't kept up with the latest updates, all these new AI references don't inspire confidence at all, but the older version I'm running is chugging along and doing a great job.

If I may ask, how many searches per day over what volume of data?

It's a bookmarking service so people rarely search - they just throw stuff into a bucket that they'll probably never go back to for the rest of their lives :)

I picked MS primarily because I was impressed with the quality of search results across multiple languages - even if this were a more search-heavy service, I would probably still pick MS because high quality multilingual search results will always have the highest importance for me as a multilingual person.
