Super interesting, thanks for sharing guys.

What I'd be interested about running a site like this is:
- The infra it runs on?
- How do you manage the infra costs?
- What would you do different if you were starting again?

That's just at the top of my mind, I'm sure more people would chip in with more questions 😊

Interesting, with all of the content produced on here, my prediction was more than $4k to be honest. 

Were the monetization channels enough to cover the infra or did the team have to chip in too?

@andy you all probably have your hands full with everything, but would the team be up for a knowledge sharing session regarding Posts & Read?

There's an initiative to make a successor of this masterpiece and some background information would be huuuugely helpful if this is something the team can share?

I'll leave it to @mehdi to cover our infra but — we manage infra costs via our monetization channels (supporters, job listings, etc). It cost around $4k a month to run.

infra is pretty simple, basically:
- firebase/firestore
- redis
- vercel
- cloudinary
the overall code is pretty simple too. the magic sauce is moreso in the product thinking behind it

I’m interested in this product thinking 👀

Yeah, could you expand a bit on how you’ve used design thinking in your case?

If I were to start again I would hire someone to focus on business partnerships — we may have been able to spin up a white glove recruiting business? Not something we're passionate about, but may have been a more significant source of revenue.
