Hey this could be good news for self-hosters and folks that want to run their own yarnd? 🤔 Vultr is offering 1 vCPU, 500MB Memory and 10GB Storage for FREE! That’s right $0.00 🤣
@prologic@twtxt.net would it be enough to spin up a reverse proxy/Tunnel like the one you did? 😏
@aelaraji@aelaraji.com it depends on the transfer they offer. Oracle also offer free VMs.
@aelaraji@aelaraji.com Yes it would be honestly, for low traffic volumes for sure!
@bender@twtxt.net Is right. Apparently it’s 0 bandwidth. I’m asking them some clarifying questions:
Hi Team,
Just noticed that you offer FREE (as in $0) VM(s) on the vc2-1c-0.5gb-free
plan. however I also note that this has 0 Bandwidth.I’m a bit confused by this. What would be the point of having a free VM if it has no Bandwidth? How is network bandwidth charged in this case?
cheers
james
Their response:
The bandwidth for our free instances is 2 TB of free bandwidth.

All our servers come with an initial 2tb for free.
Did we just discover a way to grow the Yarn.social network? 🤣
