When the traffic hits a certain point, the costs start expanding rapidly. I know startups that pay 2 million a month in data processing and server fees.

Can you estimate what a site like voat would cost per month?

I dont know, but potentially several k a month. I do know that I wouldn't like to pay that bill, especially after coding and maintaining the app.
It could also be poor (or not optimised) web design. If a request needs to query a whole database instead of a smaller daily table, that could lead to inefficient server utilization which would add to costs.
This is another reason that would make it hard to estimate.
