Unfortunately, this kills my primary use case for heroku which is small personal projects. I have a dozen or so of them on the free tier right now. Heroku was great because I could throw them up for free and not really have to worry about hosting.
Now, howerver, I have to weigh any given project against my overall budget of hours. If I put up my weekend project, do I need to kill that project from a few months ago? Do I want to start paying for hosting for a site that will probably never go anywhere?
I suppose I'll just go back to hosting on DO/EC2/Etc. A single small instance of any major provider could handle the traffic for all my projects put together. It's slightly more work, although there are some cool projects like Dokku that make it less so. Heroku's main selling point for me was convenience and simplicy, and it's been progressively losing that over the last year or so.
