Why are we still using client.realm

[An-m1654]

as far as I know, realm database is now deprecated
source: https://www.mongodb.com/products/updates/product-support-deprecation?tck=notice_product_deprecation_2024

so why is it still used?

I mainly want to ask this because I find it annoying to play around with the client.realm file,
because you
1: either need a external software like Realm Studio or
2: need Node JS or some sort (When I first looked at the realm, I didn't know Realm Studio existed so I used this lol)

and the fact that we are already have sqlite3 online.db file for storing things, so why add realm into this?

plus the fact that sqlite3 have cli (Thank god I can do stuff there)
and also I can't use DBeaver on realm files like I can for sqlite3.

I think sqlite3 is a better option to be pretty honest

On android, it's a lot easier to just pull up Termux, grab that file, and do stuff in sqlite3 cli than use nodejs (There is no native Realm Studio for aarch64 android so I can't just use the Realm Studio app)

btw I'm not very tech-y so idk.

Also tell me if this is the wrong place for this

Migrating away would be weeks to months of work. We have other focuses, and it's still working fine for us.

Supporting third party use cases, especially where the issue is "i'm too lazy or unskilled to use realm" is very low on our list. Hopefully you can understand why.

yea I can definitely understand your point. Just keep this in the back of your mind I guess

Welp! I guess you did remember. Probably not because of me but good choice thinking about going to something else better like sqlite3
