I'd certainly be interested to know for the sake of donations. I would gladly donate to keep the fediverse alive.

It varies greatly depending on your setup.

Lemmy.world's monthly expenses are around €1,200. Though that includes hosting more services that just Lemmy.

For comparison, it looks like £30 per month for lemmy.zip:

And lemmy.ca is around CAD$30 per month:

At one point Reddthat.com was considering moving to a bigger server that would cost A$150-200 per month:
