I know Firebase is awesome for plenty of reasons. And I’m not disparaging anyone who works hard on it. There’s a ton of great software behind the product.

Unfortunately it’s at the root of almost all of my career’s worst bugs and mistakes (not necessarily caused by me), and it seems like a bit of train wreck in the wrong hands. I’ve had to rescue several clients from it, and have migrated three pretty huge applications off of it now.

I’m not sure what it is exactly. People really abuse the hell out of it.
