Would you build again on Bubble if you had read the Bugs forum beforehand?

I hoped it was, but I’m slowly finding out that it’s not.
48 hours + of totally unexplained downtime of my App with hard to contact, slow to respond support is starting to look like the final nail in the coffin for me … we have users and operate in an industry where business continuity is critical.
I keep giving Bubble chances, mainly because each time I pitch a migration the devs convince me otherwise - their skillset is Bubble. I fully acknowledge the great things that a Bubble build provides over sites built in Wordpress or Webflow, but the reality is that at least those two platforms have more stable and reliable underlying infrastructures for providing a B2B service that other business can rely on. My evolving image of Bubble is one where hobbyists tinker. What are other people’s thoughts? Are others planning migrations? Or sticking with it?

Where else can you build a competitor to a company that’s existed for 5 years in just a few weeks?

Where else can you push new features and bug fixes daily?

Where else can you maintain a serious product with just one (less than one) developer?

Where else can you learn to build a serious app in just a few months?

Vercel (NEXT/React/Svelte) + Supabase, sure it might take a day longer, but you’ve solved most of your scalability challenges from the start, and you’re using industry level infrastructure.
Can you build a business, and we only use Bubble for part of ours, that relies on a partner like Bubble that leaves you in the total dark for 48 hours trying to message support?
