@Sxubas

I found an issue with this document.

Title: Fly.io Free Trial
Location: https://fly.io/docs/about/free-trial/
Source: https://github.com/superfly/docs/blob/main/about/free-trial.html.md

Describe the issue

There is no free trial.

The page advertises:

You can add a credit card from the dashboard at any time during the trial. This lifts the resource limits and keeps your apps running without interruption. Note: adding a card ends the free trial and your usage starts counting toward your bill from that point on.

However, when I try to launch a machine/app as a new user, I get:

! You'll need to add a payment method in order to proceed.

? Would you like to do this now? No
Error: payment method required to continue

Additionally, on the web platform UI there's a banner that says:

Add a payment method to keep using our platform. To start deploying apps you'll need to add a payment method.

Don't lure users in with the hope of having a free trial, please be sincere, its not a great experience.
