My GDE GCP credits have now expired....continuing to ping folks about getting more but no luck so far....not sure if there's been some change in policy.

[John O'Reilly]

At least right now with not running instances all the time the costs have come down quite a bit.

[mbonnin]

Yikes! Oh well, time to optimize things a bit

[mbonnin]

I'm happy to take care of these bills. It'll nudge me into optimizing more

[John O'Reilly]

No, they're fine.... hopefully should get credits at some point

[John O'Reilly]

It's a lot lower since we stopped running all the time

[mbonnin]

Still, I can't help but think it should be basically free given the current traffic

[mbonnin]

There's the load balancer that has a minimum amount every month IIRC because it allocates a static IP or something like this

[John O'Reilly]

The 50 euros a month we were racking up seemed a lot all right for what we had

[yschimke]

Happy to contribute $10 a month, if we share load, not too bad

[John O'Reilly]

hopefully can get the GDE GCP credit....I'll keep hassling people about it 🙂 ....that's been covering cost fine up to now

[yschimke]

@Ataul Munim may know who takes care of this.

Ben used to know (I assume John has already pinged there)
