I'm looking to host my own website and mess around with some services but my current home server is already pushed to the max. Planning on getting some thin clients for proxmox when I have some more money, but for now I wanted to mess around on Oracles free tier to test some stuff. I heard they will randomly delete accounts / free cloud vps and was wondering if there was a way to mitigate this. Some post I've seen seems to be tied to not having a CC on file with them so after 30 days or so when it "charges" your account and there is no payment option, the vps will get deleted. Does anyone have experience dealing with this? I wouldn't mind adding a card to the account as long as I won't wake up to a huge bill one day because I went over the limit.
