> Maybe time to use Serverless apps for your backend and then hobby projects on Vercel or Netlify to bypass costs for smaller projects as an alternative to Heroku.

> I've done some research to find alternatives to heroku, and created an article based on that. If anyone interested: https://dmnk.hashnode.dev/free-heroku-alternatives

> We can find some free hosting alternatives but Heroku was easy to use for quick deployments.
