Litestream releases 5.9 and newer have a bug that causes instances to sync an insane amount of data. a DB with <10K of data in it and practically no writes/reads causes something like 10GB of daily replication traffic. For my toy project that got needlessly expensive.
I've been following litestream for a while, and it seems like the project has been hijacked by a vibe coder. I wouldn't trust it for critical tasks anymore.
Is this bug logged?
Looks like https://github.com/benbjohnson/litestream/issues/1197. Still open as of now, with a potential cause noted in the latest comment.
This is one of a bunch of issues that have been popping up since a vibe coder took over the bulk of development on this project. There's a (probably also AI generated) list of a big portion of the issues here: https://github.com/benbjohnson/litestream/issues/1221. That proposal has been open for a few months, and it seems (from my POV) unlikely to be resolved any time soon.
