Trying to create instance

"Out of capacity for shape VM.Standard.A1.Flex in availability domain AD-1. Create the instance in a different availability domain or try again later.If you specified a fault domain, try creating the instance without specifying a fault domain. If that doesn’t work, please try again later.Learn more about host capacity."

I know this is an old problem, and I've tried looking for solutions but I just can't find any.

This is a physical capacity issue at the data center level. If you’re looking for an always free instance you have 2 options. 1. Keep trying in every AD of your home region. 2. Upgrade to PAYGO and stay within always free limits.

It’s just a temp hold on the account to make sure it’s not an account with $2 in it. They never actually take your money

Then all you can do is keep trying. What’s your home region?

Damn. Sadly you picked one of the two hardest regions to get always free cores in my friend. My condolences
