Basically as the title asks. It looks like the .wtf instance is down again, and I’m starting to think more seriously about hosting my own instance. I imagine I’d have to pay for the domain name, and for a server to host it, but are there any Peertube instance hosters that can confirm if there are other costs involved?

Edit: Looks like the .wtf instance is back up, so thanks to the admin for that! However I’d still take any advice I can get on setting up an instance in case it’s needed

    Realistically probably less than 20 a month for a good cloud provided option.

    With your own hardware, I ran mine for less than 1$ a month with an existing domain and hardware around the house. You dont need much other than storage. For single user probably next to nothing. For family and friends a bit more.
