On: Ask HN: Projects that don't make you money but you're doing it out of sheer joy?

Twicsy (Twitter picture search) still gets around 1.5 million visitors per month, but nets no money. But I wouldn't call it sheer joy though, maybe sheer stubbornness?

Looks cool though! ;-) What are the costs associated with that if you don't mind me asking?

[dumbfounder → Insanity]

Servers are about $1200 per month. (I have about 12tb of SSD on 5 servers). Then there are some misc costs (business costs) that are maybe $200/month.

Wow, that's rather a lot of money for a non-profit project :-o

Indeed, damn. That is a lot of money to spend each month
