Sorry if this has seen asked - I couldn’t find anything with Google. How do servers of this size pay the costs for hosting? Are they self hosted?

Thanks!

    Ours costs significantly more than that!

      Well yours is much bigger I assume! I think we’re only up to about a hundred total users and average concurrency is obviously close to zero requests per second.

        Yeah, that’s what we were like before the reddit migration, but because we had already been up and running for months by that point, we ended up absorbing a lot of users when they happened

          Are you guys paying for the influx of users out of your pockets? Is there anything we can do as users?

            Well, we have a ko-fi setup, but ultimately, we’re paying for it out of our pockets, yeah. This and blahaj.zone
