https://railway.app/ is really good. Easiest way to get a project up and running IMO. You can deploy from existing GitHub repos or a project starter in one click.

Dokku Maintainer here.
Dokku also supports Dockerfiles, Docker Images, Tarballs (similar to heroku slugs), and Cloud Native Buildpacks. I'm also actively working on AWS Lambda support (both for simple usage without much config as well as SAM-based usage) and investigating Replicate's Cog[1] and Railways Nixpacks[2] functionalities for building apps.
There are quite a few options in the OSS space (as well as Commercial offerings from new startups and popular incumbents). It's an interesting space to be in, and its always fun to see how new offerings innovate on existing solutions.

copilot-cli
The AWS Copilot CLI is a tool for developers to build, release and operate production ready containerized applications on AWS App Runner or Amazon ECS on AWS Fargate.
Throwing this out there since it hasn't been mentioned yet but AWS's copilot tool (https://aws.github.io/copilot-cli/) has been really nice for setting up an ECS cluster with a good build pipeline that we use in almost the same way as we use Heroku. It's definitely more mental overhead than Heroku but it offers more flexibility and tying directly to your AWS account. After setup it has been maintenance free for over a year but debugging parts of the build pipeline were painful at first. It recently started supporting AppRunner now that AppRunner can access VPCs so I'm looking forward to trying that at some point too.

I upload static assets to IPFS and add those static links to my project instead of having an "assets" folder.
IPFS is fast enough, I had these concerns too so I use a gateway for links as some of them cache files on their own CDN, for free.
Yes, I use a pinning service, I was extremely hesitant as many of them are just SaaS hosting like Pinata is and charge by bandwidth used, but there are free ones like https://web3.storage which for some reason is combining Filecoin and IPFS together for each upload and liveness/pinning.
Ironically, Pinata also acts as a gateway and can then be used for free if you want. But there are other gateways. Cloudfront has one but what it decides to cache is strange.
