Hey, our infrastructure is already being paid for by existing users.
Our pricing plans are designed such that you cover your own storage + bandwidth costs, and then some more. We don’t have a "forever-free" plan, and don’t intend to have one.
And the compute requirements for a product like this are low (since most of the computation happens on the client).
So currently what we need money for is employees (engineers) and not infrastructure.
