TLDR : Answer Summary
Australian citizens traveling to Thailand for up to 60 days can obtain a visa exemption stamp upon arrival, eliminating the need to apply for a tourist visa online.

 yeh not many bother with that site as it mostly post travel warnings. Not many go scrolling through to find the requirements. I personally ignore it and don't know many that use it.

There's no free visa, as you can only get a visa by applying for and paying for one. But if you have an Australian passport you can get a 60 day visa exempt stamp without a visa.

 No ! You get a 60 day stamp in your passport in the airport at immagration that you can extend by another 30 days at any local immagration office if you wish to stay up to 90 days

 keep an eye on things as the visa exempt stamp could change at anytime back to 30 days instead of 60 between now and 2026
