I can't wait for PaaS prices to drop. I know they'll always be relatively expensive, but I'm primarily a dev (not ops) and I don't have the time nor desire to manage my own servers securely.
Heroku lately has seemed a tempting offer, assuming I can run my apps on it (Rust based), but at $7/m for little side projects it felt.. expensive for a no user side project. They can add up. A $5/m DO box can host quite a few apps in containers, by comparison.
Perhaps Serverless would be a great playground for low/no traffic apps, but I've not gotten into serverless much.
