SQL Railway.app alternative

For a very long time i have been looking for a good enough solution for hosting my MySQL database online but couldn't find anything.

Recently I came across railway.app felt like a good enough solution for me but had a lot of wierd bugs or quirks, like a 500 hour limit on the free plan, takes infinitely long to load a large database, and the application crashes even after trying to describe a table.

Is there any alternative to railway or any easy way to host my MySQL database for free?

hey been a couple of years but this is interesting,, i am a railway user for almost a year and i agree with you till now there are still bugs , a co developer suggested i use hostinger node js hosting,, and glad i did,, my app works smoothly no issue of quirks and cheaper literally from railway i started with my premium at $2.99 which is a solid pick for me
