Thanks.

Not too long ago I was like “we’ve been paying heroku $59/mo for years (open source, non-commercial, funded by patreon) and while I don’t have any issues I can’t tell if it’s kind of in maintenance mode or what.” So I checked the blog and saw posts like “Faster Dynos for All” and their email newsletter which regularly mentions improvements to service. From those I felt reassured that they’re still improving it. But then came a wave of “heroku alternatives” and posts lamenting how heroku is blowing it. I’m grateful to hear reports from the other side (though again, my personal experience with heroku is still totally fine - and we don’t do the github integration)!
