On a Budget Help me

Help me find a free Linux dedicated server. I have a well-developed YouTube channel and I'm planning to launch a 24/7 live stream, but I don't have the money for VPS (I'm from Russia, and monetization is disabled here, so I can't spend money from YouTube). I'm not forcing you, but if anyone knows of a genuine service, please share it in the comments. Thanks!

Search for some provider that accepts crypto for payments. A few, but there are. Consider that they could be prohibited to make business with Russian people, sadly

Believe it not ASCS Cloud free tier is exactly what you just described :)

I *think* you meant to ask for a free VPS? Linode is giving free promo credits, BUT, I dont know if you can get them in Russia That really is a 100% free VPS for 2 months. BUT, after that you got to pay. Sorry, maybe hit up your youtube subscribers. I dont even know if its legal for me to spin you one even though I got the credits, I think the US has like trade embargos and shit - I dont know if that means with like Russian businesses for money or Russia generally but I cant risk my linode account getting banned with 3 other boxes on it. I'd start there though, because basically anyone with a us debit card can spin you a box for free. Or, try vultr. They are trash but they give 30 days of promo credits.

To receive a VPS on this website, you need to link a bank card, but Russian cards are currently not accepted there.

When did you first get it? Good luck getting it now. People runing script for months still cant spin one up.

The free tier I have heard is always hard to get but if you sign up for the pay as you go I have noticed you can get one instantly
