I tried to answer this here

This is not a bug; replit will force shut off your repls after a certain amount of down time. This is the nature of replit – there is no true 24/7 repls without external pingers (I recommend https://up.coding398.dev ). What this means is there is a specific amount of down time that repl allows after which it will re-run your project. Essientally, “24/7” repls don’t actually ensure that it is run 24/7 but instead that you never have to press run – replit will do so for you; replit saves resources by doing this. It is annoying since sometimes projects such as web databases can be shut down and all the data is reset, but again, I point you to an external pinger.
