I love Python and Ruby equally and I simply cannot standardize on one. I love Heroku, but it can get a speck pricey and is totally specific to Rails.
Is there a decently inexpensive host, or many, that adequately supports both Ruby and Python frameworks as well as offering common LAMPish support?
Yeah... I wanna know if I can just have it all for cheap (sigh).
I'm mostly interested in this for development and startups... scalability is not a big deal, but very welcome.
I'm in accordance with elithrar. I switched to webfaction and I'm very happy with the change. They've a very good support (I got answers in less than half hour for my problems/questions) and when my question is got by one of the IT guys, the same guy cares about all the subsequent communications until problem, doubts are resolved.
They're cheap too and have very good support to do almost anythong you could need. Just compile what you need and install it in your home by ssh access and ready to go.
I'm not from webfaction, but this is my experience with them.
Hope this could help you.
Good Web hosts that support Ruby and Python?
