  3. Argh.. past month our total server bill was almost €200 higher then usual so I extensively compared the last two invoices but couldn’t find any changes in servers, volumes or whatever so I opened a ticket at Hetzner

    Just got a reply that it’s because of “the price change that took effect in April, which we announced to you during the week of February 22–27.”

    So it’s permanent 😿 The one time sponsorship is awesome but this..

    So heads up for people who host at Hetzner 💸

    @hetzner I am extremely thankful for the one time sponsorship but with the new price increase it’s adding roughly €2400 to our bills on a yearly basis

    Is there room to talk about this or is it set in stone? We’re trying to offer a better solution to the big tech web but it’s getting harder and harder this way

        @stux for the things you get Hetzner is still a strong choice o.o.

        My bills for my servers are currently way more than my monthly rent - just for "hobby stuff" like my small instance but i don't see any suitable alternative to them o.o

        And nice that you got a one time sponsorship though, congratz :3

              @stux @hetzner Any room to optimise usage to try and bring the compute/storage requirements down a bit?

                  @stux @hetzner You might be able to get clever with cloud stuff and the API's but i'm not sure how realistic that is with Mastodon

                        @stux Yeah, big bump in prices for compute this year. Blame the AI guys buying up all the hardware I guess.

                        The price bumps still leave Hetzner about the best value around though I think.

                        Shame they aren't an ongoing sponsor though, that's what I assumed when they said they'd contribute. Some value of compute to spend each month. 😞

                            @stux Wow, that's quite a big increase. I guess this is the new normal considering computer part prices have been skyrocketing in recent months 🥲
