I think the most valuable thing to come of this debacle is the firm understanding that Heroku is on its deathbed and shouldn't be used.
While Heroku was out I took a look at Fly.io and Render.com but neither one quite fits the same use case.
Fly does not have automated PR builds and Render does have them but they all use the same database instance and you can’t have more than one active free database (so multiple PRs affecting the database are not possible).
I actually switched to Render before realizing that limitation. It was easy to do and works well but now that Heroku has their integration working again I’m thinking I’m just going to switch back…

Is there a service that provides something like Heroku’s PR deployments in a free tier (for open source development)?

Setting up a well organized PR to preview environment deployment pipeline, that can be automated by CI passing is time consuming and full of yak shaving opportunities.
Just clicking “enable” for a small team is a huge win.

https://railway.app is another good alternative.

Having integrated with Github before - for providing OAuth and pulling private repositories - I will say that they've never really had fine-grained permissions. The scopes are here[1] and from what I can tell, I can't ask for private repo access to a _specific_ repository for a given OAuth token. Maybe this is different for a Github App, but just quickly browsing through their docs, I don't think this is the case eit…
