I commented this in another thread, but thought that it could do with its own post.

It’s a solid list to go off of if you want to pick a few to host. The link has more info on each, as well as which ones are non-profit / for-profit

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

This is a collection of containers that all contribute to public-good projects:

  • networks: Tor, i2p
  • computing: boinc, foldingathome
  • archiving: archivewarrior, zimfarm, kiwix, archivebox, pywb
  • storage: ipfs, storj, sia, transmission

This v1 list was started by the ArchiveBox project, but it’s open to contributions.

    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.
