If you're going to do this yourself, Caprover is the best.

Cram it into that $5/month, bump the swap to 2GB and then deploy your DB into it... backups are supported if you just straight up map a persistent volume out to your B2 (https://github.com/caprover/caprover/issues/410)

Edit: Be aware during automated upgrades you will trip CPU alarms.

This is great, do you have any recommendations/comments on usage? Aside from the CPU one

I've used Caprover coming from Flynn and it's much better.

It's not super pretty like Heroku but it works.

Recommend adding NetData integration so you can monitor your hardware without logging into instances.
