I've seen other instances do this, so I figured I might as well too. Right now the instance is hosted on a relatively medium sized VPS with object storage. Lemmy uses very little resources, so I run some personal stuff on the server as well (like a screenshot hoster, blog, etc) but if I need to upgrade I can eventually.

VPS: $13.99

Object storage: as of right now it is $2.20 (and growing, slowly but surely)

I'm not opposed to donations, but it's not required. The biggest cost is likely going to be object storage more and more.

Thanks for the transparency and for hosting us. But let us know how we can chip in when the time comes. You shouldn't pay for all of us out of your own pocket.

I also want to add my voice to this demonstration of gratitude. As CaptObviousb just said, your transparency is highly commendable. Thanks for letting us inhabit your server.
