Can you point me towards getting an AWS/GCP instance for around $20/year? Is it AWS or GCP? Also what type of instance? What are the specs?

At the moment I just use EC2 and GCP instances (and a couple of GCS buckets)




Sure - on AWS, it's the 3 year reserved term for a t3.nano ($51 for 3 years or $27 for 1 year for 512 MB RAM and burstable CPU as described here: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/burstabl...). https://aws.amazon.com/ec2/pricing/reserved-instances/pricin...

On Google, the comparable offering is an f1-micro instance, which goes for $3.88/month (https://cloud.google.com/compute/vm-instance-pricing#pricing).
