OCI has reclaimed idle (NOT!) Always Free compute resources

Summary:

Active, non-idle compute instances were stopped while I was actively working on them.

The docs state that idle instances are those where "CPU utilization for the 95th percentile is less than 10%"

My instances are using more than that (checked in metrics).

Result:

Lost all trust in Oracle, won't recommend it.

Howdy, Stranger!
