Review PlanetScale?

Reviewers mostly praise PlanetScale for speed, reliability, and especially its database branching workflow, which several say makes schema changes feel more like Git and helps teams move quickly. A user notes the branching setup can need extra CLI scripting in CI, and the clearest complaint is pricing, with one reviewer upset by costs after the free tier was removed. Founder feedback from the makers of Context.dev and Octolens also highlights easy setup and zero-downtime schema changes.
