And just for anyone curious, the current (Very finger in the air) costs for everything I currently host which is Fedi related, comes in at somewhere around £14,000 per year when all is said and done.
There's a fair few places we could and would optimise and part of migrating to colocated hardware was always on the cards because we could do some smarter and more efficient uses of the hardware capacity we have. A large cost for us monthly is our media, for the last invoice I got it came in at somewhere just shy of £560 for one month of storage use.
I need to do a lot of thinking and a lot of planning but I'm hopeful by this time next year everything will be re-platformed and running on purchased hardware and should be running both a lot smoother and with a lot of headroom to grow or to host other services.
