My first reaction was surprise that there were 20 people at Parler to begin with!

From what I've heard of people running Mastodon servers, they are not exactly lightweight, and a large one might actually require a lot of housekeeping. So maybe 20 is not too unreasonable...

They had 80 people to begin with. After 75% layoff, they have 20 people left.
