Yeah, Beehaw doesn't have anywhere near that MAU, but I cannot fathom how it is costing him $5k a month to run a few instances, a few of which have many less MAU.

    As he stated, the service is scaled for the heyday of twitter migration with headroom to spare. Naturally the base infra is going to cost quite a bit.

    He's probably sized to run 5-6 times the capacity he needs at the moment.
