Unrelated to your original error, but that's fine. Can you share the logs?

Did you create a variable by the name TOKEN and set it to your bot token?
10 months ago
Are you sure the token is valid?
10 months ago
Did you push your .env file to GitHub?

Yeah, but it was just public a few minutes ago. Discord runs a crawler to reset any public tokens. You should reset it.
10 months ago
When they reset it they actually won't tell you the new one until you reset it yourself.
10 months ago
So you'll have to go into the portal and do it yourself :P

It's actually incredibly smart
10 months ago
I have no idea how Discord watches every single repository and instantly resets tokens
10 months ago
It's amazing

Just variables should work

Sounds good! Am I okay to close this post?

Mhm?
Is it just the 1st 30 days free hosting or how does it work exactly?
10 months ago
If you're on the trial plan, you get $5 of credits or 30 days. Whichever goes first.
10 months ago
You will have to upgrade to Hobby if you're currently on the trial.

Of course!
