I was using Heroku, but thinking back it may have been just a factor of inexperience (I don't do web much, not had I used Heroku before and the UX is not great there). I can't actually remember which go framework I used, but I associate negative feelings with the experience (take this entire thing with a grain of salt - I just thought shuttle.rs + the general rust buildsystem seemed so much cleaner than what I recall doing - I struggled a lot with config files and getting the module system to work for me)

We have come a long way since Heroku. Vercel/Zeit has really raised the bar and expectations for a modern PaaS.
Noted, thanks, I'll check them out!
