Just wanted to put this out there as a little PSA in case it's helpful: if you want a cloud server but don't wanna pay anything, Oracle's Free Tier is a life saver. Discovered it a year ago and couldn't be happier I did, since I'd never pay for cloud computing otherwise ðŸ˜.
Quick Specs:
For free you get:
- 24/7 uptime
- 200gb of storage space
- 24GB of RAM
- 4 OCPUs
- 4 Gbps Bandwidth
That's been more than enough for me and honestly feels too good to be true. Some things I've done with this:
- Minecraft Server
- Radarr/Sonarr Plex Setup
- I'd like to make my own backup solution as well!
If anyone has any other ideas for cool projects I could self host, please do tell I'm curious what else I could do :)
