Does it not depend on the amount of followers ? https://ar.al/2022/11/09/is-the-fediverse-about-to-get-fryed-or-why-every-toot-is-also-a-potential-denial-of-service-attack/
Yes, complex topic. But I think Masto.host is over-charging massively for bigger instances. My impression is that the person running that service doesn't actually want to host large instances that would be better off on their own dedicated hardware and thus over-charges them to make them consider moving elsewhere.
