| Free tier | no first-party claim of a free shell was found. Fetched on 2026-10-22, tilde.zone/ redirects to /explore and serves a Mastodon instance: a trending feed, posts and hashtag links, and no shell, no signup and no operator page. A host answering SSH is evidence of a host, not of a free shell unit none; metered on none; Demoted again on 2026-10-22 |

| Limits | - write-gated (binding) no signup path and no operator page were found. The only page the host serves is a Mastodon instance, so the registration gate is the one constraint established and it is a documented absence rather than a published limit source
no quota, retention or login policy was established, and the only page the host serves is a Mastodon instance. The host is up and the terms are unread, which is a reachability measurement rather than a finding about a free shell |

| Binding | write-gated The host answering is a measurement, not an offer. |

| Identity | email unknown: no operator page and no signup path were found, so the cost of an account cannot be stated. The value is 'email' only because the schema has no 'unknown' |

| Notes | Fetched first-party on 2026-10-22, tilde.zone/ redirects to /explore and serves a Mastodon instance with a trending feed and no shell, no signup and no operator page. The measurement is kept because it is real and deleting it would lose the evidence. Recovering the row needs a first-party page that names an operator and a signup path |
|---|
| Evidence note | unverified the SSH banner was measured twice and is real. Nothing about a free shell, an account, a quota or a retention clock was established, and the one page the host serves is a Mastodon instance. The weakest link among the fields the verdict rests on is unverified, so the record is unverified with a measured reachability note |
