PlanetScale's free databases will stop being available by the end of March 2024

I recommend switching to railway's Hobby Plan, for now it's free-ish, $5/month + $5 free per month by default.

Any other way ?? like Supabase Is it possible ??

[johnparkerg]

These two offer free databases but are pretty limited
https://filess.io/
https://freedb.tech/

I haven't been able to get a fully functioning ServerlessWP (I'm not sure if the problem is my alternative DBs)

Sure I will check it out . Railway stop working after for a period of time

[johnparkerg]

I've been using Railway for other things and haven't had it stop. But it might be the combination somehow. Let me know if you get it working.

I had the same problem, I tried using https://filess.io/, I managed to install the new wp, but I can't access the admin because it doesn't exist, it only shows the first post.

Is anyone working on this or have any suggestions for replacing PlanetScale?

you can use TiBD which has a very generous free tier; if you plan on using this you need to make sure you're following this tutorial since there's some changes you need to make to make serverlesswp/wp compatible

@returnkirbo
TiBD works! Thanks
Note that it also requires wordpress-tidb-plugin to show posts on wp-admin and frontend, otherwise it just says no posts found.
