i am assuming the majority of those users are not active then?

are you using external storage for user media elsewhere?

do you federate with the broader ecosystem?

these numbers are otherwise nonsensical, a 20 dollar do droplet has like 100gb of storage space, and 3Tb of transfer, that'd be chewed up in less than a week by those users.

Of course they're not all active. As a past admin, you know that active users are probably closer to 10% of the total.

Oops, you were right about media storage. I use DigitalOcean's Spaces, and that's about another $20 per month for ~1.5TB of images and stuff.

Maybe take a look at scaleway, they have Unlimited bandwidth plans.
