    If anyone&#x27;s curious - <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;planetscale.com&#x2F;docs&#x2F;postgres&#x2F;search&#x2F;get-started#local-development-and-ci" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;planetscale.com&#x2F;docs&#x2F;postgres&#x2F;search&#x2F;get-started#loc...:

    They&#x27;re not providing a local extension with the same performance at the time - it&#x27;s only offered on their cloud services.

    The local version <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;planetscale&#x2F;lead" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;planetscale&#x2F;lead is mainly just for testing the syntax, it doesn&#x27;t have the same perf characteristics.

      Becoming more the norm for them, Neki is the same.

      Immediately rules out ever using them (though I don&#x27;t currently have any problems that would benefit from that level of scale currently, have in the past though).

      Postgres&#x27;s license allows this but for me (personally) it leaves a bad taste.

      Also it&#x27;s not really &quot;full-text search for Postgres&quot; it&#x27;s &quot;full-text search for our hosted version of Postgres&quot; so the title is a little misleading.
