Maybe I am misreading / misunderstanding how Mastodon works. but that is 2000 active users on their pricing website. https://masto.host/pricing/ image.png
Yes, that means 2000 *users* not 2000 followers. As in, imagine every person in the project has a @doctormo@social.inkscape.org fediverse account to post things to. And all of them were very active, there's no way we'd get up to that number of active users.
masto.host is a host of multi-user servers. It hosts fosstodon for example with many users.
The advice for getting the $20/mo service is likely due to bandwidth expectations of having tens to hundreds of thousands of people as followers and posting images to them all.
I've contacted them regarding the single person tos, I wonder if that's legal boilerplate or even if it's still true. But will let you know!
