"All in" it now costs about $2300/mo to run Newsie.social.
That includes servers, moderation staff cost, insurance, etc. (most of the staff including myself work free on Newsie)
That's a big jump in costs over the past 3-4 months (largely because of Twitter's meltdown)
However we've reached the point of unsustainability because we take in only $1000/mo and we're running out of runway.
