I just bought villainku.com. Will forward to heroku.com when the DNS is done. You die the heroku, or live long enough to become the villainku.

  Ah yes, because a company that decides to stop giving away its time and resources for free is now a "villain". Right.

    Mate, this was a joke. I hope that came across. I've been a paying member of heroku for nearly a decade, and pay them $1000s of my personal income monthly. I think their product has been brilliant. I just defended them yesterday in a HN comment. I do, however, use their free tier to test things daily. This news puts me in a bind. It's work that I hadn't planned, and I only have 3 months to find a solution for it when I have my own roadmap already planned.

      Sarcasm and jokes in text don't usually come across to most people due to the lack of context. No criticism intended.

        Sarcasm, sure- but not jokes. I got the joke, and many jokes are written, and ancient. Without context, even. Having said that, this is HN. Infer from that what you will :)

      This is me as well, I pay for production but the testing stage of the heroku pipeline is free dyno. I gotta move both to someone else or pay for the testing env on heroku. I'm not a swe, so it will be a bit challenging for me to migrate
