You could even go the Oracle route on their free tier, probably has more compute than many $5/m VPS, although the learning curve is MUCH steeper than a simple VPS
Comment on How to selfhost with a VPN

Not sure how much you’re paying for your VPN, but a virtual private server can be had for about $5 per month. You’ll get a real IPv4 address just for you, so you won’t have to use non-standard port numbers. (You can also use the VPS as a self-hosted VPN or proxy.)
$5 per month doesn’t get you much processing power, but it gets you plenty of bandwidth. You could self-host your server on your home computer, and reverse-proxy through your NAT using the VPS.

I think you can find 1x vCPU VPS with 1gb ram for 1$/month on lowendbox / lowendtalk
