I remember back then when Vimeo started charging content creator somebody did a good analysis showing that they are basically charging what you would have to spend if you hosted the video yourself. Is this the case here for WordPress?

Free resources are never free. I hope changes like this will pave the ways for the future of self hosting.

We host all wp ourselves; it’s so simple these days. I have a script which just gets into ssh and runs docker compose and dumps all the passwords. Takes seconds and currently we host around 20 wps which makes the cost per wp 0.05$ per month. Sure it can go down but it never did and if it does, we’ll survive.

Were are you getting servers for $1/mo?
