Overview
Have some space computing power and want to donate it to a good cause? How about 10+ good causes at once?
♻️ put an under-utilized system to good use
🚲 use as much or as little CPU/RAM/DISK as you want
✨ 100% more soul warming than mining
📈 geek out over your CPU/disk/bandwidth stats on the leaderboards

There are often some "fair use" paragraphs in their respective ToS that they could enforce and either terminate your account or request you to uprade to a higher tier product. Usually (not always) VPSs are overprovisioned, so when people start to fully utilize their rented machines theit whole business model goes belly-up.
Find some loophole in their T&C to terminate your account I guess. Similar to how mobile providers don’t like people actually using a lot of bandwidth on their „unlimited“ plans.
