Is it open like an instance or is it for hosting communities only?
If you're asking what the $6 gets, I'm talking about a single shard which allows me to host a Linux instance that runs a Lemmy instance. I wasn't sure if that was sufficient, but honestly, the performance via Jerboa is better than when I was using an account on lemmy.world. It has only been a week, so don't know how much disk will get used up over time. Long term I might need to bump things up for storage.
Oh, I meant would people be able to make accounts on it? Or is it purely for hosting communities?
At the moment, just communities. I thought about letting people make accounts, and might still do it, but I don't want the responsibility until I'm sure the system is reliable without much extra work. It seems like the lemmy.world people are running into a lot of problems.
