#5Scalingo, because EU company and hosting in EU. They are a great alternative to Heroku with awesome customer service. If I don't need a PaaS I use Hetzner (e.g. for my newsletter with Ghost). Clever Cloud is also a good EU hosting service.
I've used Render before and was happy, but I now prefer keeping all my stuff in the EU =)

#7Just use github actions. Currently I do AWS + EKS + GHA. You edit, you commit, it runs test, GHA pushes to EKS. Roll backs are easy, just revert. Scaling is easy, you use the EKS node scaler.
