I am not able to create a new codespace or work in my previous ones.
It keeps showing me the error
“You are out of monthly free usage or have exceeded your budget for Codespaces. Increase your budget to continue using Codespaces.”
Please help
Then this means you have exhaused your free usage. To confirm, on Github, got to ;
settings → Billing & Licencing → Budgets & alerts
Check you codespace budget. If it’s set to $0 , then you’ll need to increase your usage by increasing your budget.
It shows $0 spent → $0 budget
But I never paid for anything on github on the first place
Earlier it used to give a message like this is paid for by freeCodeCamp (whenever I went to make a new codespace)
I don’t really have a budget
I am at freeCodeCamp because it is free
FreeCodeCamp is entirely free, the limit you’re hitting is actually from Github. FreeCodeCamp uses GitHub Codespaces to provide a virtual computer for you to work on. GitHub gives every user a free monthly allowance. If a codespace is left running in the background, or if you code for many hours, you can use up that free allowance. Once it runs out, GitHub pauses your access until your next monthly cycle starts.
You’ll have to wait for a reset or pay for more usage. Alternatively, if you have another github account that is not limited, complete the lessons using it.
