Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

FastAPI

  • Licensed under the MIT License per fastapi.tiangolo.com; as open source software it has no paid tier or vendor price to compare
  • FastAPI depends entirely on Starlette for its web layer and Pydantic for validation, per its own documentation, so it is not a standalone framework and inherits both dependencies' constraints

Micro.blog

  • Base $5/month plan does not include multiple blogs or newsletters, which require the $10/month Premium tier
  • Video hosting is limited to the $20/month Studio plan and caps videos at 20 minutes long
