   I have decided to commit to a limit on the maximum number of instances or percentage of the Mastodon network that I will host on Masto.host.

   You can read about it here: https://masto.host/the-25-percent-commitment/

     @kf Thank you so much :) I always aimed to keep the entry price as low as possible to allow more people access but we will see how things evolve and if I need to reconsider that.

     @mastohost this seems super-reasonable and thoughtful!

     I will add, though:

     "I come to the conclusion that I would need the return from the project to at least double to pay for the amount of time I spend on it and other expenses needed to improve the service."

     please charge us more! I would happily pay triple what I'm paying now on one of the lower tiers, and even if you didn't want to do that, I would happily chip into a patreon or similar

     @brian Thanks, I need a couple of months of this new "reality" to see how my pricing/costs/estimates are holding.

     @mastohost totally reasonable strategy. But also, charge us more. It doesn't have to be a windfall of money for you, but you should be breaking even. I'd happily pay double at the scale graphics.social is right now.
