Question triggered by the other post about instances shutting down due to costs Summary of the answers: lowest number so far: lemmy.ml with 0.03€ per user per month a few others (feddit.uk, lemmy.zip) have around 0.11$ per user per month obviously single user instance have higher costs

In addition to reusing existing hardware, I have a subsidized internet connection that I reuse to connect my instance, and even the domain name is free. Of course I also have fewer users - excluding me, zero.
