Is keeping site awake using some method other than subscribing to Glitch upgrade thing allowed?

[Daw588]

Let’s say if I don’t buy Glitch upgrade thing, and I use some sort of awake bot or site to keep pinging my site, in order to keep it awake. Is this allowed on Glitch? I couldn’t find anything about that in Glitch’s Terms Of Service. If not, then will this be a new rule?

[Techy]

Yes, This is allowed. If anything, Glitch staff recommend doing so.

A lot of options to pick from right now, including UptimeRobot, different versions of Awake, and a monitoring bot.

Will UptimeRobot get banned?

We are exploring ways to make sure everyone’s app can run, which requires a stable platform, and we’re finding that a roadblock to that stability sustaining is that some users are running dozens and dozens of projects that are kept awake by services like UptimeRobot. We have not decided to ban UptimeRobot and similar services, but we do encourage folks who use them to pay for a subscription (you get so many other rad perks on top of that - like all your apps no longer having rate limits!).

It’s also worth noting that whilst it is allowed to use a service like uptime robot, there is also a limit for how many projects you can have running at once!

You can only have 20 projects running at once.
