50/50 for 100% of the tech work. I find it fair. Float plane is very open about the hosting costs. Bandwidth is EXPENSIVE.

They're not spending ANYTHING like 50% on the tech work. Reminder: one of the most profitable companies on the globe. The huge profit comes from the HUGE gap between their costs and their income. So no, it's not proportionate at all, and it's gullible for anyone to pay them to reduce ads when they could block them for free.
