  • It's very easy to host a few virtual machines in a cloud at no cost at all. When you don't have a dedicated home server with proxmox or alternatives. Spin up a virtual machine in the cloud and access if from anywhere.

      If you manage to sign up to OCI, then there is. And if you use GCP correctly, you can also have a free server. But as mentioned “with caveats” you need to be careful with outband traffic. However it’s perfect for small things and testing

      @@DmitryLambertTech Oracle has massive capacity issues for this free tier, new (non-paying) customers have almost no chance. However, if you sign-up as a paying customer and stay within the limits of the free-tier, it should still work.

      No! Not without a lot of proper setup and security know how. Hosting any DNS resolver publicly is the perfect platform for DOS attacks and is generally bad practice. Look into VPN options such as WireGuard or Tailscale, they can accomplish the same thing

    I have OCI and never looked back. The only issue is you cannot just hold the VM without doing anything cos they will claim them back. So make sure you have something running, even a light load

    This isn't exactly true about AWS. I use the free tier on AWS and you can get the smallest EC2 instance on there. It gives you exactly the hours to keep it live 24/7 for one month. The only catch there is the storage for that instance is on the free for one year tier. So you have to be careful to configure it without persistent storage.

      You are right, BUT, according to aws page this works for 12 months only

    Nothing is free in this life.
    If it’s not costing money, it’s costing something else.
    If you got it free! someone paid for it.
    Nothing is free. Everything has to be paid for.

      I believe that in this case it is calculated “free”, meaning that in the end enough of those who use a free VM eventually purchase something else.
      When you are always on the platform it’s sort of tempting to purchase something for the ease of use
