Before I started reviewing developer tools I was writing backend services in Go and fighting with misconfigured Postgres indexes at a fintech. That background shapes how I approach every review. I'm less interested in whether a database tool has a nice dashboard and more interested in whether it handles contention gracefully under concurrent writes, whether the API docs match what the API actually does, and whether the billing model makes sense once you're past the free tier. I have a particular distaste for tools that advertise 'unlimited' anything. I cover backend infrastructure, developer tools, databases, and API platforms. I read changelogs before I read marketing pages.
