I pay for hosting lemmy.ca myself. i just took it over from the previous admin, since they were unable to.
To clarify that comment - I handed lemmy.ca over to @smorks@lemmy.ca as I no longer have the time to run, maintain, and moderate it. The cost for me was negligible at this point - I had it sitting on a dedicated server that ran several other things.
What traffic did you get there ? Why dedicated, when most use VPS for lemmy ?
I already had the dedicated server, so it was easy enough to just virtualhost it.
