Cachet HQ is dropping native Heroku support

• benologist 12y ago
  I was thinking about this with an open source project of mine too - I put in the deploy button because it really streamlines deploying self-hosted apps, but "free half day hosting" makes it so much less attractive. I can't imagine working within the limitations of the free plan for stuff I build, if I have to do that somewhere else I will do it all somewhere else of course.

    It truly is a tough call for me. Without the ease of Heroku deployment, Cachet wouldn't be nearly as popular. But by leaving it in, I'm providing a degraded experience. A status page needs to be available all of the time, not half of the day. What use is that? I'm sure the free tier has it's uses, as Heroku suggest, experiments, basic apps etc.
