Vincent, 1 year ago (edited 1 year ago) Signal had 40 million active users in 2021. With 14 million in infra cost, that comes to .35 per user/year. Total expenses are about 33 million, so about .825 per user/year. All in all that seems very reasonable. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38291950 So it should be pretty easy to cover your own costs and maybe that of a couple of friends to make the transaction fees worth it :)
