      Just wanted to share and do a cost breakdown of where we stand with server costs. TL;DR, the launch of 2026-06 allows us to go from $114/month to $51/month!

      Linode is our cloud provider and is essentially our monthly operating cost. Our last bill from them was $114.07

      With the launch of 2026-06, we're able to start turning off servers. The 2.5 bots have now been shut down.

      So, we have 5 bot servers for 2026-06 @ $5/month/server
      Forum server is $12/month + $2/month for backups
      Lobby is $24/month
      The new marti is $5/month
      Old marti is $25/month

      We'll be able to turn off Old marti very soon. Bringing our expected monthly cost to: 5*$5 + $14 + $24 + $5 = $68/month

      As soon as we turn off the old lobby:

      • we can reduce the lobby server SKU from $24/month to $12/month
      • we can move the new MARTI to be cohosted on the lobby server, removing the need for the MART server.

      So, with $17/month more in potential reduction, we'll be at $51/month
