I switched an online booking portal's geo features (Maps, Geocoding, Places lookup) from Google to a self-hosted Open-source setup running on a cheap VPS in record time 🤯

It took 3:15 hours from VPS setup to everything running in production. Before AI, this would have been a week's project at least

Apart from being cleaner GDPR wise, this is going to save hundreds of Euros per month in API fees.

I'd never have thought it possible without the inspiration of indie hacking legend Pieter Levels' replacing all his SaaS subscriptions with self-hosted Open Source and vibe coded services and talking about it constantly on Twitter!
