After weighing the cost of my VPS vs. Heroku, I decided to revert back to my VPS.
Seeing that Heroku has changed the free dyno package so that they sleep for 6 hours, I really thought hard about it and couldn’t accept not reaching users for 6 hours out of the day when with my VPS, it’s always online.
And $7 per site is just too much when I can serve as many sites as I want for $20 per month.
It was a fun 4 day adventure, changing code and learning more about how to get Heroku to work with AWS (CloudFront and S3)
All in all it was a great learning experience.
Thank God for ‘git reset --hard’
