DigitalOcean. Databases are much cheaper. No big deal in moving as digital ocean app platform supports buildpacks


I'm considering the same for https://pwpush.com. Currently on paid Heroku ($59/month) with a lot of traffic.

DO App Platform is better than last year but still a bit quirky. I haven't found a better alternative that is more 1) mature, 2) reliable, 3) paid/supported, 4) enough features.


After clicking the link to pwpush.com I had a recollection of the splash page.. Seems we've met before! https://gist.github.com/stevecondylios/16a53b73f22621e3cde2e...

Awesome to hear Password Pusher is going very well :)


Ah that's great. I still use that Feedback form too :-)


I've been waiting to make this same move but holding back because DOAP isn't quite as featureful yet, e.g. not supporting scheduled jobs, which for some reason ALL my Heroku-based projects use in some way.


For scheduled jobs right now is a pita I expose HTTP endpoints which I call from an outside service on a scheduled basis


How have you found reliability/uptime on DO?


An order of magnitude better than heroku
