Have no issues moving to tsoHost if I will have the same features as before.
What I need is SSH, run python apps from crontab, unlimited domains, emails, have 2x static websites and one on WordPress, and 10x python apps running from crontab. I am not sure what I will have with tsoHost.
Do not want to run my own VPS (like Linode or DigitalOcean) because then I have to manage updates, down time, backups, etc.I have an idea to use AWS for Python crontab apps, but I need to first understand how to do it, which would take some time.
Basically I want SSH access with a lot of customization, but that somebody else does the management :-).
From my investigation https://www.opalstack.com/ look like the best option.
Any advice ?
P.S. For the last 12+ years, I am very happy with WebFaction, sad to see it gone.
The migration faq [0] says that there will be no capability to run Python based apps on the new tsoHost. I don't know if that extends to running Python via crontab, you would want to verify that with them.
OpalStack [1] looks appealing. It's built by former staff of Webfaction. I'm leaning in that direction, but also considering Digital Ocean, Linode, Heroku, Vultr [2], and some others I just learned about. Some do some of the host management for you. OpalStack is clearly a continuation of the Webfaction model so that will probably be my choice, but want to learn some more about these others too.

We've got automated WebFaction migrations ready to go for Wordpress sites, MySQL databases, and generic PHP apps. Those are part of a suite of migration tools that are under rapid development, with the goal of having a one-step (or close to that) migration for any WF customer who wants to move over to our service.
