Heroku does lots of revenue, even if they pay AWS. I do think it would be worth.. quite a bit. And I would be very happy if a better steward would buy it.

It really surprises me there isn’t a modern heroku alternative that supports the same.. things. Like build pipelines, routing included, multiple worker types. AWS is way less batteries included. And none of the competitors seems to offer the same kind of service, last time I looked.

I think there's a couple decent alternatives out there: https://alternativeto.net/software/heroku/

There are also a lot of cool "self-hosted Heroku" alternatives

- Coolify (PHP) (2020) https://github.com/coollabsio/coolify

- Dokku (Go) (2013) https://github.com/dokku/dokku

- Dokploy (TypeScript) (2024) https://github.com/Dokploy/dokploy

- CapRover (TypeScript) (2017) https://github.com/caprover/caprover

- Komodo (Rust) (2022) https://github.com/moghtech/komodo


Literally nobody who seriously uses Heroku wants to self-host their own Heroku.

We had an enterprise account on Heroku. We invested a little in Dokku and moved to self host it as of a few months ago.

We now have a kubernetes (k3s) backed Dokku self hosted on Hetzner. Significantly cheaper but pretty robust.

Just saying that it's not literally, but you are right, most people wouldn't be interested in self hosting.


What DO you want?

Thanks for the reply! Most of these (also on the alternativeto) are self-hosted, which is different from having heroku do it. Also most only support webservers, while the majority of our servers aren't web..

I liked this idea so much I signed up and linked my personal cc (to my job email) to try it out. Unfortunately, it keeps saying "You must add a credit card to use Sprites with this organization" - even though I just linked a card. No way to continue from there: it's a loop that shows my account with an "activate" button, clicking it shows the error and my account again. Fly.io says I have an account now and it's "in good standing".. :(


This did resolve itself.. I guess adding the card took.. a few minutes? Errors were confusing tho


Jira actually has both an MCP server and a CLI tool (called "acli"). I switched our claude code to the CLI (with a skill) from the MCP as it seems.. more efficient/quicker.


Feature suggestion: Costs (and tokens) per branch. I'm interested what branches we spend the most on.


another one: overall stats (same as per project)


The setup for this is So confusing. I had cursor bugbot (and copilot, but that's github themselves) where it was just a few clicks. Here it's a command line tool you can install in github but you also need a google cloud project?

Fake. They're not actually hiring.


We for sure are (and you can see the roles differ between months). Why would you say we're not? Also feel free to email me.


There have been cases in the past where you stop responding over email to top candidates from companies such as Google (including those who are present in NL).


I'm not saying I'm perfect, and if I missed your email, I'm sorry.


also shows just a blank page for me. osx/safari
