I've been looking for a service like this for a while, and the first I find out about it is that it's shutting down. Does anyone know of similar offerings that are as simple? I know AWS, GCP and the likes offer container clusters, but I would like to just run a single container (for cheap) and not worry about it.

This is a short overview of Kubernetes and major cloud providers offering (AWS ECS, EKS, Fargate, Azure AKS, GKE, and DigitalOcean)

AWS employee here:

I'm going to be honest AWS Fargate isn't as easy to use as hyper.sh if you are looking for an alternative. That said our increased complexity is because Fargate is orders of magnitude more full featured for applications that outgrow small platforms. If you want to give Fargate a try I'd recommend this open source tool (http://somanymachines.com/fargate/) as it provides you with an easy, opinionated starter command line experience similar to what you might have seen for hyper.sh

Azure App Service's 'Web App for Containers' [1] allows you to run a container, but might not meet your definition of cheap. Also consider Azure Container Instances [2]

You can run a container on a f1-micro VM for free forever: https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/containers/deploying-c...

If you want something more similar to Hyper.sh, serverless containers are coming out publicly soon, and you can sign up for the alpha here: https://g.co/serverlesscontainers

Surely you don’t actually mean “forever”
