Yawn- heroku used to be my go-to but hasn't been for years.

On the other hand, it's nice to see them support the dotnet (I'm assuming through a well supported engine like mono).

It’s actually using official .NET (which is now cross-platform and works very well on Heroku’s platform).

.NET has been cross-platform since 2014

Mono has been transferred to the WineHQ Organization [1] and is no longer recommended or supported by Microsoft.

.NET is the only (cross-platform) server runtime anyone should consider running Server Apps on.

Not the poster you replied to, but try Google Cloud Run or Azure Container Apps.

Both scale to zero, are portable, and allow full use of your language/runtime/framework of choice. Take any app you are deploying to instance compute today and add a Dockerfile and ship it.

AWS App runner comes close, but doesn't have the option to scale to zero.
