So, where do I host this bot?

I host my bot on replit.com at no cost to me at all. For FREE. Seriously - Using the Python Flask module, I can set up a temporary website hosted by the repl, and a free service called UptimeRobot pings the website, keeping the repl awake. This is needed because replit.com shuts down repls that have been inactive for an hour. The website for my bot is as follows: https://GamesTDB-Bot.d1ddle.repl.co
