    I’m opening up my server to about 100 users. My server seemed a bit overkill for one account so I figured may as well help a little. We’ll see what usage looks like and maybe I can add more people without it starting to get expensive.

      I would set up and encourage a donation system. The costs are going to build up in a hurry.

        That’s why I’m capping it at 100. That might be permanent. I don’t need a huge community. I don’t need growth. Federation provides more than enough content.

        Plus considering probably 8/10 users will only login once or twice, realistically I’m looking at 1-2 dozen actual users. I can work from there and see what I can handle.
