On the cost, would it not be cheaper to buy some beefy servers and move on prem somewhere friendly?
It might also be better to whip up the crowds and spend a lump of cash in the short term rather than rely on ongoing donations that may dwindle?
If the tech strategy is one of just keep the lights on, then the compute costs (and need for new servers) shouldnt increase.
You're probably right, a single hetzner server plus object storage can do this... But then you have to manage hardware in addition to software. I wouldn't choose that
