You can take a dedicated server with good power for free.

- $300 is given for 90 days.

The only thing that sucks with that is that you need a valid credit card. Not everyone has one.

I would like your problems. 

In fact, someone will take advantage of it.

Rofl.

 

My statement was just about people may have a problem using the service because of no credit card.

They may or may not be. The question is how much want to get VDS.

I’ve used my debit cards with no issues.

Be carefull with cloud services. Although they give you 300 free credit to use and open instaces databases etc  they charge you around 4- 6 dollars for cloud service panel(using their network even for developer purposes). Credit/debit is a must with 1 dollar validation (i am not sure if they give it back).  also dont forget after you are done to delete everything because if you forgot an instance running good luck paying 100 euro for a vps.

When I was in a similar situation, I found that using a VPS was a great option for affordable hosting. It's not completely free, but it's usually much cheaper than dedicated servers and provides enough resources for testing purposes. I personally used eWebGuru (https://www.ewebguru.com/dedicated-server-hosting.html) for my VPS needs, and they offered reliable service at a reasonable price. Another alternative to consider is cloud hosting, like AWS or Google Cloud, which often have free tiers or credits for new users. This can be a cost-effective way to host your server for testing without spending a lot of money.

If you're looking for free or dirt-cheap hosting for a server, check out Oracle Cloud's free tier—it gives you some solid resources, including an always-free VPS.
