I've been hearing fantastic things about Render. One concern I have is about the trajectory of the company-- for example there was a time when Heroku was a great bet, then it got sold and stalled. What are the most convincing points you can give for why Render won't follow a similar path?

Interestingly, Heroku improved and grew quite a bit after the acquisition (2010), but ultimately, getting acquired was a personal/financial decision for the founders: https://twitter.com/_adamwiggins_/status/1334595789201563649

I'm very happy to share my own acquisition calculus over email (in profile).
