I think we have a stronger product focus and are not building something only for other fellow techies. So it is free and privacy friendly - don't think there are too many with that combination. But beyond that we really believe to simply have a more polished and well rounded product, compare and decide for yourself :-)
How do you plan to earn in the long run?
I wouldn't trust any service that claims privacy and free. And from personal experience building a privacy oriented free platform, I can tell you donations aren't really a long term solution
Pay what you want is not something I invented. As an example there is this german hosting service that uses this model since many years: https://uberspace.de/. I'd be interested in the experience you did with a privacy oriented free platform! Furthermore actually we highly optimized counter to be sustainable serving many users for little cost. See the glorious technical details here: https://github.com/ihucos/counte...
Anecdotally we are currently serving about 150 (integrated) users and our database is only a little over 2 megs in size. So it's designed to be quite scalable and super cheap.
