I have something like 300 tabs saved in One Tab, which is a huge improvement on what it used to be (> 1000).
I think over the next few years you will see a lot more docker infrastructures in production as these newer applications begin to mature.
Deploying a "Docker application" is complicated, especially when you throw things like K8's into the mix. Container networking and communication isn't easy.
You're right though, it does make sense for there to be a service that does this, and thats why there are things like flynn.io, dokku, and nanobox.io, each trying to tackle this problem and make creating and deploying docker applications easier.
Also, if you had to categorize some of these technologies how would you do that, and what are some of the other ones that are similar to those mentioned here that aren't listed?
I could have done a better job of making that clear in the description, and I apologize.

There are a lot of good entrepreneurial teams as well, but a lot of them have one time fees to join (part of a vetting process).
The one I mentioned above is free which is somewhat unusual for such an active community.
Is it like https://nanobox.io that allows you select any host (AWS, DigitalOcean, etc.), or is it more of a full stack PaaS like https://www.fortrabbit.com/ but for Django only?
I guess it's nice to see a little diversity!
After a while we just ended up going back to Google Hangouts for screen sharing and Discord for voice, and it's worked perfectly.
This article gives a good explanation of when/why a company might decide to migrate away from Heroku.
Heroku provides a really great service, but one size fits all only fits for so long.
The $99 you pay to Nanobox is for the use of the Nanobox Dashboard to manage your application on your host (Nanobox Desktop is free).
Even an experienced developer could benefit from this if they don't want to take the time to configure environments.
Similar to the old question, "if a tree falls in the woods and no one is there to hear it does it make a sound?" Yes; similarly Mist will send a message whether or not anyone is listening, and will keep sending them whether or not the client is prepared to handle them.
