Hosting for Web Apps: Cloud vs. Homelab vs. Hybrid – Which Saves You Money?
Finding the Right Fit: I used Cloudflare Workers for the Nuxt frontend application. It is simple to use and has a generous free tier. Cloudflare also acts as your DNS manager, and offers performance optimizations and DDOS protection for free! This seems like a smart strategy on their part – support smaller projects with potential to grow, and they get word of mouth recommendations, case and point, I’m mentioning their services in this video!

Standalone Next.js. When serverless is not an option
Server functions may encounter performance issues due to Lambda cold starts, impacting user response time. Some providers have minimal delays (like Cloudflare Workers due to V8 engine), while others require additional steps. For instance, one way to mitigate this is by periodically invoking the server function, although this would require investigation and potential costs.

Netlify just sent me a $104K bill for a simple static site
I believe you can replace most cases (static sites) with Cloudflare Workers [1].

🦉 AthenaDB: Distributed Vector Database Powered by Cloudflare 🌩️
Cloudflare has a serverless compute platform called Workers. Workers are automatically replicated across all Cloudflare data centers, meaning that the developer can make an API or other application that automatically scales with zero infrastructure! Workers also automatically routes user requests to their nearest data center, meaning that latency is reduced significantly!

Deploy Node.js applications on a VPS using Coolify
When I came across Coolify, I thought of giving it a try. I am aware of Dokku, but I never really tried it because it doesn't have a UI. I work primarily as a UI developer, so having a nice UI to work with is a plus for me.

The Hater's Guide to Kubernetes
I run all my projects on Dokku. It’s a sweet spot for me between a barebones VPS with Docker Compose and something a lot more complicated like k8s. Dokku comes with a bunch of solid plugins for databases that handle backups and such. Zero downtime deploys, TLS cert management, reverse proxies, all out of the box. It’s simple enough to understand in a weekend and has been quietly maintained for many years. The only downside is it’s meant mostly for single server deployments, but I’ve never needed another server so far.

Netlify just sent me a $104K bill for a simple static site
Yeah there are a bunch of selfhostable things:
Caprover (https://caprover.com/)
Dokku (https://github.com/dokku/dokku)
But people still choose Netlify and Vercel for ease of use I think.
Maybe we need something that's just Netlify. The closest I've seen to the "right" UX is Ness:

Ask HN: How are you hosting multiple small apps?
Based on the fact that your ideal is to have a similar experience to heroku than managing your own server setting up reverse proxies take a look at these options:
1) https://dokku.com - lets you turn your light sail instance basically into heroku
2) https://render.com
3) https://fly.io
4) If you have aws credits this is their heroku equivalent: https://aws.amazon.com/elasticbeanstalk
above is not what I do but would be the options I would pursue if I understand your preference and requirement correctly.
