YMMV, but I quite like Render for the sorts of things I'd have used Heroku for ~5 years ago.

Plenty of folks I respect absolutely love fly.io--I have less hands-on experience there, but they've got a fantastic crew, too.

Who are you using for a database provider? Render doesn’t have auto backups and HA Postgres right? Those are table stakes for me.

We've had a number of folks migrate over to Crunchy Bridge [1] from Heroku, the only main feature we're missing at this point is dataclips which is coming. We can also help with pretty much no downtime migration even for larger databases. And the team over here is pretty much same team that built the original Heroku Postgres.

Render has automatic Postgres backups, and you can also click a button to create new backup. We're working on HA (ETA late summer/early fall).

One thing that I have really come to like with Heroku is the pipeline. fly.io doesn't have one (I don't think?) and render isn't the same; it rebuilds for different stages and there's no concept of 'promoting' the same slug.

We're planning to release the notion of build promotion on Render late summer/early fall.
