Also the negative insinuation of using “cheap” labor out of India to build the product is unnecessary. If you’re concerned about code quality, look at the code.
Assuming everyone working with devs in India is doing so cynically is not charitable.
I dont know why the headquarters was set as india versus SF but does it actually even matter?

I would pay $5 to have every one of these projects stop saying "alternative to ElasticSearch" unless they implement the ES API (as https://github.com/zinclabs/zinc at least claims) because if one just wanted some schemaless full text searching wizardry, there are about 10 of those projects. If one is trying to replace kibana or the damn near infinite log gathering tools that target ES, Sonic and Melisearch and and and are not going to get it done
