Netplay service in need of support
🕑 Added 2023-07-29 01:57:48 +0000 UTCStarting Feb, 2024, AWS (the hosting service used for netplay) is raising their prices[1]. Running the 4 existing netplay servers currently costs about $15 USD a month. This Patreon almost covers that, but the new price increase will basically double the cost.
I am left with 2 choices:
1. Remove 2 of the netplay servers (there are currently 4: US West, US East, Paris, and Brazil)
2. Remove IPv4 support (IPv6 only), which will make the service unavailable for some users.
Please spread the word, I would like to continue to offer the service as-is, but more Patreons are needed in order to continue offering this service.
