#22We have an unreachable instance in us-east-1b but others in that region are reachable
Keep in mind that not everybody sees the same names for the same availability zones - your us-east-1b might be my us-east-1d

#23My AWS instances on us-east are unreachable :(

#24Seems like someone posted a link to a project that made self-hosting a previously Heroku hosted site simple, but I can't find it now...

#28Their uptime percentage is 99.97%, but I'm having a hard time fighting the recency effect that is telling me to get off the platform ASAP.
That's 99.97 for the last month.
Which is ridiculous, 9s for most services use years as standard. Of course if heroku did that they wouldn't look so good.
