They are using AWS for their infrastructure. Based on their last Form 980, which is from 2018 their expenses were about $5 million. That expense was with < 10 mn users and a much smaller dev team. Since 2018 theyve added more android and ios developers.
- toomuchtodo 6y agoHope they get on to their own gear sooner rather than later. Any exorbitant cloud costs they can avoid are funds that can go into development, and I'd rather what I'm donating goes to said devs and not AWS (not that there's anything wrong with AWS per se, but donations are harder to come by then business revenue and VC funding). Would really appreciate if Signal would give rough estimates of their infra needs (average and peak bandwidth, storage, compute, etc).
