A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

how much of the budget can a mastodon instance even take? like yeah sure don't invest more into it but surely they could just leave it as a place for official fediverse accounts for their various projects?
Infrastructure for a 300 MAU Mastodon instance isn't very much, but if they're paying employees to run it then that will drive expenses up quite a bit compared to how it is with volunteer-run instances.
Less than €100 a month
Social media people only get paid €100 a month? I doubt that.
I was talking about the server costs. For less than 300 users, the cost isn't exorbitant.
