A $0 cloud computer—I just got stuck at the login step.
Someone asked if you can still get a free Box from Simular.
I looked into it, and it really is free:
one cloud Linux desktop per account, $0, no credit card required, and credits refresh daily.
But it’s not a VPS.
It’s a sandbox computer for AI, connecting to tools like Claude and Cursor via MCP.
There’s no public inbound access, and it automatically goes to sleep after one hour of inactivity.
People in the comments have already warned: use it to run a node and you’ll get banned.
A free box can’t handle VPS workloads.
It’s fine to play around with as an Agent sandbox, but forget about using it to run a node.
Have you ever been lured in by a “free VPS” too?
