That is wrong (and I need to update any docs that mention this), the traffic is not encrypted end to end, we do TLS termination on our side. From that point on traffic is forwarded back as plain HTTP. However I would in any case not suggest to host any production applications using this service. It is mostly for local dev testing.

Why not just buy trial or cheap VM? Are devs that lazy now? Or is this aimed on vibe "devs"? :D

To some people (students, people in low income countries) there are no cheap hosted VMs.

Agreed and even devs who have the money, most of the times don't have the time.

It's not my target audience. Also as a dev I hate spending more than a couple of seconds to do this. This service exists mainly to scratch my own itch.
