Though i totally get your point, my feelings in the past few months have changed and i think the best way is to run lambdas/functions on a Digital Ocean maintained Kubernetes cluster. It literally means no restarts. In your current setup you would have a small restart of services due to the fact how Heroku works.

Yeah, this is understandable, but not a big concern based on what we need out of a service.

We do use AWS Lambda for some things. Ultimately our choices are a mix of what we care about and the natural evolution of our needs.

Since u are here, I would digress a bit to ask for a feature request, is there a way to move existing posts to a series?

Yep, here's some more info in this post for v1 editor: dev.to/ben/changelog-create-series...

For v2 editor, you would click on the ellipses on the right hand side to create a series.
