Even colocation services are super expensive nowadays, data centers are hot commodoties. Thankfully im grandfathered in with the 16-core machine I have, so hoping it stays that way

Setting it up on a mini-pc would be nice and easy hehe

wouldve thought its much cheaper, almost like setting up a beefy minecraft server on a mini pc (which ive done, but without the beefy )

ill do my part and set up a small, monthly donation

CVGM is pretty intensive on resources, so you cant use cheap VPS servers except for streaming heh, and even thats unstable (i have tried!)

Before donations, i would say i spend about $1200+ a year on the site. The datacentre I use got bought out, and they almost doubled their prices so i've had to scale a lot of stuff back, such as the slacker dtream server, to keep costs down

hey, FishGuy, how much do u pay out of ur own pocket per month for the server, minus the donations? (if u dont mind me asking ) oh and a huge thank u for doing that
