I agree. It's not like this project is disrupting an overpriced product/SaaS.

E.g. Buffer charges around $50 per year per social media account, which gives you an unlimited number of collaborating user accounts. And their single user plans are even cheaper.

I don't see how self-hosting would be a worthy investment of your time/effort in this case, unless you are in some grossly mismanaged organization where you have several devops engineers paid for doing literally nothing.

I know solo bootstrappers who have 5+ accounts across platforms for one app, it's quite normal for B2C.

$50 is a high price to ask, no? And I just looked it up, it's actually even more than that.

Consider having an account for each common social media platform, then multiply that for every project, that grows quickly.

		You are right. My memory failed me there. I should have done a quick lookup for the pricing. It's $120/year/account for multi-user setup, and $60/year/account for single-user. Which is still dirt cheap if you use social media professionally. E.g. what would $360 buy you if you try to do self-hosting? Maybe a day of work from a devops engineer to get this deployed for you?
