Just thinking about recent reddit news and how they’re sperging that “third party apps” will dodge ads while costing them money.
That brings me to the question: Is the fundamental limit to hosting on the internet just bandwidth costs?
Sure there’s some costs of developers and routine maintenance but it seems to me the limit of a website will always be the ongoing bandwidth costs.
Is there a good equation to quantify this?

Bandwidth is expensive or whatever but I think Reddit's 2000 employee count might have more to do with their costs![:marseyxd: :marseyxd:](/e/marseyxd.webp)

They need 2000 employees to run reddit? They should probably just let Musk have a peak to see who they can layoff.

I'm so happy in the CongoTheSubredditPolice 1yr ago #4326550 spent 0 currency on pingsBob's team works full time on creating more pop-ups demanding you download the app. This department costs $4 million a year.

Singling out bandwidth seems weird. The actual server infrastructure itself isn't cheap. I imagine payroll is a lot more expensive than server costs though.

Just in case you really are r-slurred, the servers have to "do work" in addition to letting your coomer requests penetrate their sockets.
