Getting the @heroku deletion notice for old / inactive apps is like a trip down memory lane. RIP heroku.

Reported 2022-10-04 17:24:21

Game Theory Bot will be shutting down. Heroku is retiring their free tier, and I haven't had the motivation to update this bot in years anyway. Sorry this meant that the tweets got really stale/there were no goofy Spamton theories/etc.

Heroku was the first Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) to offer a quick and simple deployment method with a free tier. The news that Heroku is shutting down that tier marked a sad p***ing. https://t.co/3yLRpFbIig #SoftwareDevelopment #SoftwareDevelopers

The downside here is that Heroku is ending their free tier, and I don't see a reason to pay for a silly twitter bot. So it will be shutting down at some point.

@azamsharp I am using https://t.co/MHd5iyKsBD ..as it also has the same commit to deploy feature like Heroku. The only down side so far is that the startup time is around 30 seconds on the free tier..for heroku, at least for me it used to be 15-20 seconds.

So, with both of the above in mind — what would make a pg_upgrade vary in speed? Why do my friends see such wildly different upgrade speeds? Well, if Heroku is using --link it's not database size that is the issue. 1TB, 4TB, 1GB, should all be similar. It must be ****YZE?

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. 👍

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.
