I am working on a game with a where users in different servers will post, reply and view different threads. I have tried using datastores however they are far too inefficient and difficult to manage, is it possible to use HttpRequest or some other method to get entries from a table in a MySQL database when a user views a page (25 rows at a time) as well as inserting a new row whenever a user posts ingame?
You will have to host your own server with the database on it and a REST API endpoint. Use Roblox HttpService to communicate with it.
There’s a SQLite3 resource available that allows you to use SQL querys from in-game to your servers.
Please also note that HttpService also has a limit of 500 GET or POST requests per minute
