Hi, so I've just read this article which talks about "free" VPSes. Now, the website points out a user-data collecting website that fakes a VPS website, no big deal. But, I've seen GigaRocket and 5jelly on there. Now, I know these sites were very well known to the post4vps community. Notice the "were". The article points out something very interesting - these websites shut down right after the introduction of GDPR - the General Data Protection Regulation law.  
The article mentions post4vps as 

[font=Helvetica, sans-serif]probably the most legitimate way to get an actual powerful VPS account.

but criticizes post4vps for

an attempt to build a fake community by promising its users freebies

I personally don't believe post4vps is a "fake community". Now, I won't be digging into the rabbit hole, but just be aware there are many, many, MANY "free" VPS scams. Of course, as a user of post4vps, I must say post4vps is NOT a scam, as it really gives out free VPSes and has 13 well-known sponsors. I've thought to write this post as many of post4vps users will search really deep for a free VPS, and you really shouldn't -- you won't recieve a free VPS for searching deep, because why those website promising "free VPSes" are so deep in the results? Because they are scams!
So, if you want a free VPS, just be a active member of the post4vps community and hope for the best!
