Free Hosting and Usage
Hello, how do you do?
Would I politely ask, I thought Railway provides free hosting and usage... I have deployed to systems on Railway following this, but now I am getting the message "The Starter plan will be discontinued on August 1, 2023. Upgrade to the Hobby plan to continue using Railway."...
Would someone please explain whether I'll be charged for the projects, as my sole intention was to have the free plan.
Thank you.

Railway very generously has offered very cheap and affordable quality hosting but while the service grows larger, the company has other expenses of which they must charge their users for to provide the quality product. Running servers, hiring developers, and more, all cost very pricy depending on your needs but as Railway scales, so must its service to compensate. Though in my opinion, it is still very much so worth it compared to a VM with unused or unnecessary resources, being charged as pay-per-use with Railway.
So that means the free plan I was on has expired or?
yeah, there is no more free plan
Oh my... alright, thank you.
