Long time coming, but going to properly shut down discove.xyz Jan 1st; any remaining users, export your data/feed algo code that you want to keep.

It costs too much to run & maintain, given nr of custom feeds it caches and given its hosted on vercel.

Might relaunch at some point/could open source if enough interest

/memes turns out a million slow requests (to cache feeds) a day is a lot

I also have global edge caching but for free with Cloudflare. I have everything a next js has

discove:
- custom feeds can take up to 2 mins to run on SQL, can't let first user going to that feed in that time period get an uncached version, or they wait for 2 mins for the page to load. That's what just cloudflare edge cache would do
- cache is stale (expires) in less than 5 mins (as chrono/algo social feeds are)
