I've used AppSignal for my side projects when they didn't have a free tier yet and really enjoyed it. It's a good balance between seeing important parts of your stack (I've used it with Rails), without being too complicated and overloaded as Sentry.

    Thanks for sharing. I have been looking to replace Sentry. It has always been my go to just with its early roots in Python but feels like it misses the mark these days, feels heavy and I don’t really use it correctly. Have also tried systems like Rollbar which is nice but feels too simple. Will try this one out.

    I use AppSignal for my side projects AND the two products we have @company. Strikes a good balance between logging/metrics/traces. The hosted OTEL collector is nice!

    (disclaimer: I'm a vendor to AppSignal; to add: awesome people to work with!)

Hatchbox is for deployment. How does this compare to kamal? I haven't deployed anything bigger than a basic SaaS app with RoR, so I'm wondering why all these bells and whistles would be better than a script.

    The short answer is that Hatchbox gives you a more Heroku-like deployment experience for those who would rather spend money in exchange for not having to own the ops.
