In a world where open source PaaS competition is heating up fast, eliminating the free tier for Heroku feels like a massive unforced error by Salesforce. https://twitter.com/...

Definitely the end of an era. I think many saw this coming a long time ago, but still sad to see. (Obligatory: @glitch is happy to host your projects, and being in a community with others who value the open web is wonderful.) https://twitter.com/...

Wow. Free lunch is over! Time to pay up, kids! [Heroku] “will be phasing out our free plan for Heroku Dynos, free plan for Heroku Postgres, and free plan for Heroku Data for Redis®, as well as deleting inactive accounts.” #NewHeroku https://twitter.com/...
