| Free tier | 'Get a free LXC container with instant* deployment.' The tiny shape is 1 core, 256 MB, 2.56 GB SSD, 200 GB traffic unit unlimited; metered on none |
|---|---|
| Price | none stated |
| Limits | |
| Binding | volume-quota 200 GB of traffic is small even for a personal tunnel, and it is the first thing a WireGuard node carrying real traffic exhausts. |
| Identity | institution no card and no phone number: the gate is a forum account, quoted 'You need to have an active Hostballs, Lowendspirit, or Lowendtalk account with the following:', with '3 Months old account', 'At least 50 Posts (shitposts do not count)' and 'At least 50 Likes on your posts in total'. An activity rule follows: 'Yes, you have to log in to the Portal every 60 days.' No country limit is stated on the about page or the home page. The portal's own registration form was not reached, so whether it asks for an email address or a phone number is unverified. |
| Egress | 200 GB of traffic on the tiny shape; metering unit not stated free allowance: 200 GB |
| Per-object cap | not applicable: the unit is a container, not an object |
| Retention | no retention term is stated on the page; what happens to an idle container was not established |
| Interface | ssh SSH into an LXC container reachable on a NAT IPv4 port and over IPv6 |
| Tooling | any SSH client; HAProxy support is listed as a feature |
| Composes with | the only zero-cost machine found with a NAT IPv4 and 20 forwarded ports, if it has stock and if those ports carry UDP |
| Reliability | the deploy page reported 'Out of Stock' for Melbourne, Auckland, Tokyo and Singapore at the time of reading |
| Notes | Two things decide whether this is the answer and neither was established: whether the 20 forwarded IPv4 ports carry UDP (the page says only '20 IPv4 Ports', unlike NATKVM which states UDP explicitly), and whether any location has stock. WireGuard needs both. The identity cost could not be read because the deploy page showed stock status instead of a form. A 2026-10-24 re-read found the plan orderable: six of sixteen locations carry an 'Out of Stock' badge (Melbourne, Auckland, Tokyo jp1, Singapore, Ho Chi Minh, Johannesburg) and the other ten are flagged stock-available. UDP appears nowhere on the homepage, the deploy page or the raw HTML, so a UDP forward is unverified rather than absent. The word 'instant' carries an asterisk with no footnote found. The free container is 64 MiB today, not the 256 MiB the home page advertises; the home page and the deploy page disagree. |
| Evidence note | documented the free offer, the shape, the port count and the traffic figure are quoted from the home page read; whether the 20 ports carry UDP is not stated, and stock is a moving condition |

| 2026-10-24 | microlxc.net/index.php?p=deploy | quoted: the deploy page listed 'Out of Stock' against Melbourne, Auckland, Tokyo and Singapore |
| 2026-11-02 | microlxc.net/index.php?p=about | the gate is membership of one of three hosting forums, not an email address |
| 2026-11-02 | microlxc.net/index.php?p=about | the forum account must be three months old, with fifty posts and fifty likes, and the portal login every sixty days |
| 2026-11-02 | microlxc.net/index.php?p=about | the answer that follows gives the forum-membership requirement, and names no country |
| 2026-11-02 | microlxc.net/index.php?p=about | the account gate is a forum membership with an age, post and like threshold |
| 2026-11-02 | microlxc.net/index.php?p=deploy | the deploy page still marks four of its locations out of stock, so stock is a moving condition |
