I wanted to say “same as the default limit for Google Drive, which is 15G”, which sounded very high, but holy hell I’m already eating 10G of archive space. 100G!

I've got: >100GB = 134 users >200GB = 32 users >300GB = 15 users >400GB = 5 users >500Gb = 2 users (after I cut off the dude with 1.2 TB)

Do you store the archives on a compressed filesystem that can dedupe byte sequences across all users? If so I'd expect to see these numbers drop somewhat. In general I'd say at least 250gb though.

Which is ~$60/yr on S3 (before xfer costs), jfwiw.

Which would be a massive waste of $, I'd use B2 or literally any other storage provider and stick a deduped filesystem on it. 250gb should be no more than $15/yr tops

Pinboard isn’t a commodity backup service, but something a lesser, saner developer would build on top of it; by the ordinary rules of the game it should cost more than S3.

Right, the gamble is that most users will store significantly less than 250gb though. If that assumption doesn't hold then you should definitely charge S3-level prices for your users.

Honestly the last 12 hours of discussion of cost-based pricing has been squicking me out so much it’s hard to articulate thoughts clearly. Pinboard is priced way too low. But it’s an ethos.

I doubled the prices. What more do you want from me?

I'm never going to take him seriously after his Japan prediction. It's all over for @patio11.

Also, my users are schoolteachers and furries and stuff without a ton of disposable income. I think a third pricing tier makes more sense than having

Your archiving account costs $25/year.
