I know this is the way of the internet, but it's sad to see Heroku's free service shut down. I used their servers for game jams, hobby projects and teaching web development. I wish this sort of free service could switch from sponsor to sponsor the way a sports team does.

@jessethanley That's really helpful! You're correct that RAS will scale you back up if you just manually scale down on the Heroku side. I can't say how soon, but we will add this. 👍

@VarunMayya I really feel like another IT bubble is bursting. First Google freezes hiring, Heroku removes free tier, Indian IT stocks are at all time lows, Netflix is loosing views and testing with ads and now Meta too is slowing down!? Crazy Year for IT, So much uncer*****y!

Hi @thisismahmoud_, thanks for your amazing website directory tutorial! I followed all the steps and there's one problem left: you hard-coded the Heroku credentials in .env and Vercel env var page. But Heroku rotates the credentials frequently. (1/2)

One way you can contribute to open source: 1. Find important projects hosted on Heroku free tier plan. 2. Open an issue about moving that project to a different platform. 3. Ask the maintainer(s) to ***ign you the task. 4. Migrate the web app to a different platform.

@p0larBoy @render The obvious reason is cost. Although it was not my main motivation. I've already using Render managed PostgreSQL so it makes more sense to move my API servers there too. Also Heroku has this known issue with websocket connections. It's gone after I moved to Render. https://t.co/yAQoy2pqwu

@mplsoccer_dev @ChicagoDmitry @matplotlib @mclachbot The memory issue workaround in the newer version seems to work for me. I updated mplsoccer package and I see it using only a small fraction of the memory that it was using earlier for pitch plots. Thanks! My Streamlit app is much happier on Heroku's limited memory platform now.

@glenngillen Yeah, a sad conclusion to what used to be a "no brainer" when building a new app. If I'm not starting an app on Heroku, which now I won't be, I'm extremely unlikely to end up there down the track.

@rafaelepplee Thank you so much. I will definitely try this. Or I will get a web developer friend to fix it for me. Another thing. This web server doesn't need to have a static IP does it? Godot can take the heroku url and resolve it into IP, is how I understand it.

@MarcoSpoerl @render @heroku Not just schema update. Could be also bulk insert data and so on. I usually run it on process startup but one issue with Heroku is that if the script takes too long, it considers the deployment a failure. That's why they have a dedicated "Release" phase.

To be clear, this has been a known issue for more than a month now. My code uses more memory than the free plan heroku includes, so I need to improve the memory efficiency (or pay for a higher tier)
