(programming.dev)
Welcome to the Programming.Dev meta community!
This is a community for discussing things about programming.dev itself. Things like announcements, site help posts, site questions, etc. are all welcome here.
If you don't mind me asking, how much does it cost to run all of the servers?
we're at like $48 a month for the main server, we have a staging server at about $6 a month, the domain is quite expensive, $580 or something for the first year, $427 for the following years. Email is $35 a month, but we had a snafu with it so we had actually gone with a different provider and that was $20 for 3 months. We also have cloudflare and I expect I'll need to set up CSAM protection eventually but that will be a bit of money too, so I'm working on getting a donation box set up first and then we'll move on with that.
Thanks for letting me know. I plan to contribute to the source code, as well as running my own server just to play around with it and getting more familiar with Rust.
I agree with the donation box, I'll donate when it's ready.
