		jihadjihad 26 days ago \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: An Update on Heroku Heroku (YC W08) was acquired by Salesforce all the way back in 2010 [0], a little over 15 years ago. A lot of people forget that, and assume the acquisition was somewhat recent. Pretty illuminating reading the thread from 2010, it was big news at the time. 0: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1982489

This is surprising to me. I actively used Heroku during the early to mid 2010s. I do not remember ever seeing the Salesforce logo there much later.

Salesforce mostly left Heroku to do its own thing for a long time. Since that changed, dumpster fire.
