I have a feeling the hosting costs are going to get expensive fast here, heh. Maybe an OpenCollective?

    yes, I’m using a Vultr instance. I was on the lowest tier of the High Frequency plan until last night. I upgraded to 3vCPUs and it’s going a lot better. Biggest problem I think was that lots of other communities are federating and so we are up to 104 GB of outbound traffic in only like 5 days. We were hitting swap which I think was causing lots of turmoil on writes. Only 17gb of inbound traffic so far. You could easily start your own node on the lowest instance, if no one else is federating your communities. As soon as big servers start federating is where we started to see trouble.
