Yeah you’re right, I just felt the need to point out that API calls are not really comparable to serving a full website.
The thing is that when you interact with the remote server directly it’s not 10 api calls, it’s 10 full-blown HTML webpages that have to be served to you, which are way bigger than REST API calls.
Because I don’t want to be reliant on someone else’s servers, plus I can set it up exactly how I want.
As for how I pay for the server, I use a free OCI VPS, so… I don’t.
