Yeah, you're right :(

My API (here: https://github.com/Lissy93/gh-trending-no-cors) that fetched and calculated trending repos is hosted on Heroku, but Heroku has recently scrapped all their free plans, and bumped up the pricing. Causing the project to go offline.

Does anyone know of any decent and free/ affordable Heroku alternatives?
Otherwise, I've got a few DO droplets, so should be able to host it there.

Oh... that's unfortunate. 😞

Not that I can think of right now unfortunately... I'll come back with suggestions if I can find some!

I see that the API came back to life! Have you found the Heroku alternative you were looking for? :)

@Lissy93 It might be a bit anticipated as it looks like they're currently building things up but it might worth taking a look at Radix, which seems to be some sort of FOSSHost successor.

Hi everyone! We know it’s been a little bit. Just wanted to give some updates on our services. We’ve been in touch with Fosshost regarding an infrastructure deal that should let us take ownership of a decent amount of their infra. This means as they sunset their services, we can transition Fosshost tenants to Radix partners quickly & efficiently given we can meet their needs! We should be able to give more info in the coming weeks. Hold tight, we’ll be able to help you soon!
