idk who needs to hear this but my relatively technical job did the cost:benefit on hosting our own llms and it was a completely raw deal. the cost from service providers assumes optimal scheduling in a way it would be prohibitively difficult for us to achieve

A Full-Network Relay for $34 a Month | bryan newbold
This is an update to a Summer 2024 blog post. At the time, atproto relays required a cache of the full network on local disk to validate data structures. With the Sync v1.1 updates, relays don't need all that disk I/O. What impact does that have on hosting setup and operating costs? Turns out the d...
How I Host 100,000 Free Minecraft Servers!

Yep. I saved hundreds or even thousands of dollars a month just from switching from Substack to self-hosted Ghost. I pay a roughly flat $85/month now (~$75 for mailsending, $10 for hosting), vs. 10% of all my subscription income. Here’s some napkin math for how expensive Substack is compared to its competitors:
