Every button pays out. The slot is taped over for a reason.
The ten with the biggest allowances
- Oracle Always Free — 2 OCPU / 12 GB ARM, 10 TB egress a month
- Kaggle — 30 GPU hours a week
- Cloudflare R2 — 10 GB, egress free
- Cloudflare Pages — unlimited bandwidth
- Turso — 500M rows read a month
- Grafana Cloud — 50 GB of logs
- Tailscale — unlimited devices
EU.org— a free subdomain: your DNS, a few days’ wait- catbox — 200 MB a file, permanent
SDF.org— a shell account since 1987
What people pay for these, and where they pay $0
a 2-core VM $5-12/mo -> $0
object storage with egress $5-9/mo -> $0
a managed Postgres $15/mo -> $0
30 GPU hours a week $50/mo -> $0
2,000 CI minutes $0.008/min -> $0

What actually lands the Oracle box
Three pollers that keep trying until your ARM box lands:
- mosesman831/OCI-OcC-Fix — 78★, GPL-3, updated July, multi-AD rotation, Docker, Telegram
- hitrov/oci-arm-host-capacity — 1,307★, the classic poller
- alexpua/oci-arm-catcher — 40★, dependency-free bash, easiest to leave running
Oracle’s own pages: go Pay-As-You-Go and the free box stays uncharged · try another availability
domain and leave the fault domain unpinned · an idle box gets reclaimed.
Before you press
- Card asked for, nothing charged: R2, Oracle, Google Cloud.
- Kaggle asks for a phone number.
- Google’s free box: one of three US regions.
- Oracle reclaims an idle ARM box after a quiet week.
Half of what is folded below is not on that list at all.
