      So a question for Pinboard users especially. How big should I let an archiving account (or a regular account, for that matter) get before I start to cut people off? I'm talking in terms of bookmarks and terabytes stored. What's a generous allowance for both in your eyes?

      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

      To clarify these figures would be the cost to @pinboard, the user-facing prices should have a margin tacked on top of course.

      Consider a spherical online business of radius R, uniformly filled with customers

      I will just emphasize that this thread did not ask "how do I run an online business?" but what people consider a reasonable cutoff for storage use (and number of bookmarks, though no one has addressed that). I think I will just absorb from this the lesson "never ask on Twitter"

      I know you’re being snarky but basically I think you’re right; to make actual money you need to raise prices across the board, so to preserve your sanity, just do a cut-off; somewhere around 100 sounds right to me, since you’re beating S3 prices now.

      A 100 GB cutoff was what I had in my head, so it's helpful to see it be the consensus answer here, too.

          Don’t leave money on the table: consider extorting the abusers with a “premiere account” that will still make you money Or not. Doing things the easy way is also good
