I actually saw your post a few minutes ago too. Thanks for the reply. I think your concerns are perfectly valid and I would have done the same in your situation. For me, I may end up switching to another service in the future. But for now, since I’m in build mode and the free dynos work out for me, I’ll stick with Heroku.

Hey, Derek!

Yeah for dev-mode free dynos are most of the time fine.

Plus I am sure it is beneficial to be on Heroku in terms of getting used to and ready for ephemeral containers and all this. Helps make your app cleaner and better prepared for different environments (you will have separate env from production to test your new releases, right? :) )

I wish you the best!

If it is Django I will be happy to help if you have doubts/get stuck with something.

Cheers!
