Is it okay to store tables/dictionaries in datastores compared to JSON Encoding? Does it take up more data? Can it be unreliable somehow? Saw some mixed results from searching google/devforum so I thought I’d make this post to get some info.
I’m pretty sure Roblox automatically JSON encodes tables in the data store anyway, so there’s literally no point encoding it.

There would likely be no difference aside from the additional computation that you do on your end (encoding and decoding)
I see no reason to encode it before storing it unless you’re compressing the json somehow.
