Would you be able to give a further breakdown of the Lemmy associated costs?

I'm really curious to know what the current operational costs are for a Lemmy server. I was hoping to be able to do some very rough math to calculate monthly cost per user, but with these current numbers I have to include users from Mastodon and Calckey.

The Lemmy server is about 180 EUR/mo and the e-mail cost was around 70 EUR for Lemmy, because of the many new signups which require a few mails per user.
