    The features of Baserow are similar to Airtable like the real-time collaboration, but I find it more performant with many records.

    The "field data types" comment isn't accurate in 2024; while missing Currency, it has the other data types + lots more. (It was probably accurate when cjphipps75 posted, though!)

    I love SeaTable because I can host it on my own server. The setup with Docker was super simple.
