Question triggered by the other post about instances shutting down due to costs

Summary of the answers:

  • lowest number so far: lemmy.ml with 0.03€ per user per month
  • a few others (feddit.uk, lemmy.zip) have around 0.11$ per user per month
  • obviously single user instance have higher costs

    Masto admin here. Small instance. 20ish users. costs me about 1€ per user.

    Most of the costs comes from media cache storage, so it would scale nicely if I had more users, but I want to keep it small
