Raptor offers free POWER9 VMs to open source projects. Since you're the
leader of ffmpeg, if you asked, I'm sure they'd give one or two for
ffmpeg build and fate testing.

"We offer free access to cloud VPS for libre software projects in
partnership with @Integricloud, would that help?"

"Contact sales at integricloud.com and tell them what you want to use a
VPS or two for. They will generally grant access to the resources."

(I'm developing on a POWER8 VM intended for devs, but ordered a
Blackbird from the cyber monday sale ;))
