Manifesto

All your pet projects don't have to die when the vendor does.

Free tiers vanished.
Replit turned into an AI-shill.
Vercel's CEO is friends with Netanyahu.
Heroku saw rapid growth and bailed on free tiers like it was nothing.

Every time a platform gets great for us developers:

Billing footnotes multiply,
Legacy plans sunset,
Things seem to be enshittified at record speed.

But not on your metal.

Self-hosting isn't "just for nerds".
It's about being in control.

To the code you wrote.
The pet projects you had no where to run.
The commit you shipped at 3AM.
—still there on Monday.

Some say the easy-deploy era is over.
I think it never ended.
It just needed a home.

So I built Deployher. Not to replace the cloud.

But to keep what's yours, yours.

So before the roadmap turns on us again, run your own thing.
