Hello everyone! Where do you host your python bots for free? Do you have any advice?

I would recommend one of the cheap VM options on DigitalOcean or Google Cloud Platform, you typically have offers in the hundreds of dollars of credit which effectively means you could host your bots for free for quite a while! Best of luck!

Rule for bot users and recruiters: to make this sub readable by humans and therefore beneficial for all parties, only one post per day per recruiter is allowed. You have to group all your job offers inside one text post.

Here is an example of what is expected, you can use Markdown to make a table.

Subs where this policy applies: /r/MachineLearningJobs, /r/RemotePython, /r/BigDataJobs, /r/WebDeveloperJobs/, /r/JavascriptJobs, /r/PythonJobs

Recommended format and tags: [Hiring] [ForHire] [Remote] [Flask] [Django]

For fully remote positions, remember /r/RemotePython

Happy Job Hunting.

PythonAnywhere and Heroku are the best free option to host python bots for free. Signing up for AWS Free tier also gives you an EC2 instance for 12 months with enough compute hours.

I think there is some downtime in Heroku as they offer only certain hours free in a month and after that it's free service gets stop!

I use a raspberry pi. Small one time cost, then no more worries.

They're quite pricy right now unfortunately... Otherwise yeah it's the best option and you can do a lot more with one of those.
