It took a few hours but the more people started using the instance the faster items started to get populated.

I’d like to tell myself that if it got to the point where it started to cost a few million that i would be able to have it pay for itself!

Yes i started doing this and the instances have solely been growing. Just took longer than i had originally anticipated

I did it! https://sh.itjust.works

Credits go to you for the naming

I don’t think its so much about the cost as it is about the ability to scale properly. There will be some issues like this at the beginning

This is a great one! Might use it

I was also contemplating setting up a new instance for this. I have 100s of gigs of unused ram, CPUs on idle and a 10gbit connection looking for something to do. The only issue I couldn’t figure out was the name. I own itjust.works was thinking of something clever subdomain to use with it. I’m glad I’m not the only one with this issue

am I the only one that thinks if someone is complaining about $54/month for hosting costs then maybe they shouldn’t be running a node? I

What kind of resources do you currently have allocated to running this instance? @[email protected]

All we need is for Christian the Apollo app developer to port over his app to lemmy
