Website down?

[amrit]

When I go to https://goodbre.ws/ I get the standard Heroku error. What's up with that?

Ah how I wish this site could run on Heroku. But if I had it on Heroku, it would actually be much more expensive than it already is. This is unfortunate timing, but I am planning on taking goodbre.ws down permanently very soon. I'm trying to work on an easy way for people to download their data before I do that, but the site may have reached a point where I cannot do that anymore. goodbre.ws has become too expensive for me to maintain on my own, largely due to architectural choices I made behind the site. I am paying to run the site out-of-pocket and it is not making revenue. At this point, I have become ready to move on to something else. Not too many people use the site anymore, so I feel as though this is the time for me to do that. I'll post any more updates here.

Sorry to hear that. Best of luck.
