One week update and stats!
Hey everyone, thought I'd post some stats since we're one week old now!

Total applications: 116
Denied applications: 4 (one person asked to change username, 3 others gave one word answer to the application question)
Accepted applications: 112
docker stats (snapshot):

You're viewing a single thread.
Really interesting, thanks for sharing. Would you mind sharing a bit more information on the current setup and costs? e.g. which Vultr compute product is being used, any block storage added, etc.
Something you might consider as the instance grows is Hetzner server auctions. These give you a dedicated server for a very good price and include unlimited bandwidth.
I think pricing and product transparency would encourage users of this instance to contribute to the upkeep :)
Edit: I didn't see c/Rust:Meta existed before... I see you're way ahead of me on cost transparency.
Just saw your Edit. Yeah, this was probably the first post I think. I wouldn't be here myself if things weren't as transparent as they could possibly be.
As for Hetzner, yeah I've used them in the past (they're great) but for initial setup, I felt that Vultr was probably just fine. That said, I'm definitely going to have to bump up the storage and RAM on this instance in the very near future, we're cutting it closer than I'd like, specifically:

total used free shared buff/cache available Mem: 969 472 72 133 424 212 Swap: 2399 456 1943I think a 2 tier bump to $24/month 2 vCPUs, 4GB RAM, 5TB egress at Vultr might serve us for a decent amount of time. And it would probably still be cheaper than the cheapest Hetzner dedicated we could find. Maybe.
