Why HN links it
HN readers mostly link Koyeb's homepage, docs, pricing and hiring posts as a serverless platform option. Some cite its engineering blog on Heroku's free tier, MicroVMs and its serverless engine, but comments praise the product, not the writing.
Summarised by Claude from a sample of 20 HN comments that link here. Each comment is marked recommending, critical or neutral (citing without judging); how this works.

HN discussionThis war was over around about the time I started, but my take on it is that it's all a bit intermixed and Mercurial lost because bitbucket caved and did git hosting [2], but git won beacuse of github and heroku [1][2] [1] https://www.koyeb.com/blog/herokus-free-tier-legacy-the-shou...
