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.

Because the webshit ecosystem is a complete mess and it has no real engineers.
