That's 60 cents a user per year, that's incredibly high for a read only publishing service. We'd get better cost per user by physically mailing everyone a letter once a year.
Are you sure it costs that much to be followed by that many people?
It seems very unlikely.

i generally don't mind project to spend money on services but i would say hosting mastodon doe not scale very well. if our instance gets popular and we get lots of users it grows linearly with user base. Having 2000 users cost ~100dolars per month and 2000 users is not even that many inkscape pov (with install base of 4 mil users). So we are eather planing for this not to be that popular = i would question why we are investing time and energy in to it . Or we are planning to be popular nad pay few k per year for hosting social media platform
