This is a public service announcement to never ever use Oracle

@ErikUden Seems like everyone who's deployed anything to OCI has a similar story to tell. My account (in the "always free" tier) disappeared and was restored after several days and a phone call to vet my identity, before which I already had restored my data elsewhere. Only recently I've deployed something onto them again (it's "always free" after all), but stateless so I can deploy to D'Ocean or OVH within minutes. I fully expect it to go down once it gains noticeable traction.

@unixtippse @ErikUden Sehr wichtig ist auch, den Account auf Pay as you go zu stellen (immer noch gratis, solange man nichts überzieht). Hattest Du das gemacht, Erik?

@frumble @unixtippse Ja. War ein bezahlter „pay as you go” account.
