I revisit heroku alts every ~6months and I am shocked how not ergonomic they still are, I switched to DO VPS + Ansible Container & Github Actions for any project that doesn't need infinite scale after Salesforce paused heroku development but I'd go back to literally any heroku clone.
It's crazy how the ergonomic still just aren't there.
Yes, completely agree; I'm equally surprised by the poor DXes.
(And: bugs. I'm also surprised by the kinds of issues I run into on some of those sites in my list -- problems that, even if not show-stopping, feel like revealing indicators of quality.)

Any specifics/examples? I find it hard to imagine those "big name" companies/platforms you just mentioned don't have entire teams dedicated to hyper-optimizing experience.
