Its right, now its much more cheap then 4 years ago, I have the bless to have internet 24/7 and almost for free so the faucets are on my sight for now although I'm trying to learn all I can to earn with something else like a online job that pays in crypto, so far I'm only using the faucets in coinpot. Another thing I have been thinking some times its that if someone manege to build a mine farm here maybe will have greats profits because electricity its very cheap you can even hack with some old cuban's tricks the electricity counter and not pay almost money at all, if you do it well and without getting greedy it will work for sure (I known people who pay 4$ at month in electricity bill and after buy stuff like another refrigerator a pc, etc.. and do the trick they still paying 4$), the main problem will be again the internet connection.
I don't know if you have already seen it, but i made a list of ways to earn crypto, maybe you'll find it useful:
