I’m not at all an expert on the subject, but I would ask: if it’s so easy and cheap, why aren’t more people hosting them? As far as I can tell there are only a handful in existence.

Cannot that be done for 40$ per month? whtwnd.com/bnewbold.net/3lo7a2a4qxg2l

Piefed is cheap to host too, but only a few people host instances.
I just learned about Blacksky which is independent from Bluesky but uses ATProto
Ulrich@feddit.org 5 days ago
PieFed is much newer, has many many MANY fewer users, and seems to already have many more instances.

Piefed also has different features than Lemmy, which incites people to start instances.
About the number of ATProto PDS and relays, didn’t you already got a much larger list in this comment? feddit.org/post/18498447/8800070

By the way, Whitewind requires you to accept their privacy policy just to read a blog post.
This is what it looks like.
