Free tier cloud services like AWS, GCP, Oracle Cloud, and Azure. I use free tier VMs to host random services like VPNs, Mastodon instance, etc.
Tailscale has a free tier to connect your devices, VMs, and home servers.
GitHub pages is great for hosting any simple website for free.
Free tier VMs are limited, so are you just signing up for new AWS accounts once a month?
GCP compute engine is completely free for the basic tier.
AWS & Azure don't offer free VMs but they offer other always free cloud services. I use Oracle Cloud's Always Free VMs which are great. You can get two AMD-based compute VMs and one Arm-based compute VM with 24GB of RAM. I've been using them for nearly 2 years now. GCP also has a more basic always free VM offering.
Ok, but, Oracle Cloud…🤮
Jokes aside, that’s pretty cool, thanks for the info
Don't forget about cloudflare. With their free caching and cdn a well optimized site can run for barely anything. With GitHub actions and pages you can have a fully static site hosted completely for free.
