Review PlanetScale?

Reviewers mostly praise PlanetScale for its developer workflow, especially database branching and schema changes that feel closer to Git than traditional database work. One user says it is the best branching setup they have used, though CI can require extra scripting, and another objects strongly to unclear, high pricing after the free tier ended. Feedback from founders is similarly positive: the makers of Context.dev call setup easy, while Octolens highlights zero-downtime schema changes and fast scaling.
