= [Question] What “non-mission-critical” things do you do with a free VPS? =

Some context: I have a paid VPS and I plan to continue using it for important things, but recently got an Oracle Free Tier instance. I know that Oracle could pull the plug at any moment, so I’m curious as to what the friendly folk of this sub run on their free VPSs

At the moment I’m running uptime kuma and that’s it

If you are developing software and are selfhosting GitLab/Gitea/OneDev: host an additional CI runner

Note if you are using DroneCI on an ARM-based Oracle VPS: If you are not setting the platform in your drone.yml file, yout pipeline will only run on linux/amd64 runners. You have to set platform.arch to an empty string to allow any CPU architecture. That took me almost half a weekend to figure out

I know right! It was a pain in thesetting up drone on arm cpu i was about to give it up but tried searching it and found the answer. This does not just apply to drone, if the docker image doesn't support arm then you either have to build the image yourself or just quit the project. Arm can be a pain in thesometimes
Personal Android private DNS server using unbound with custom block lists. It's like pihole on the go. Also serves up the zone for the local LAN so when I'm on home WiFi I can access my internal sites
