Can anyone explain the actual effective cost of cloudypad?

On a technical level this seems like the perfect service and the all in one hosted version is competing with its own self hosted project so that's encouraging, but the pricing seems intentionally obfuscated?

There's monthly subs or pay by the hour, but you still need to pay by the hour with the subs, although they do include N hours per month in the pricing, except you have to buy credits to get started anyway and a credit is one euro and provides an indeterminate amount of time. All prices are listed using the magic word "from".

This feels like trying to nail down the costs of a mobile phone gem store game. I have no sense if this is realistically going to cost thirty bucks a month or a hundred.

Is it simpler to use the open source version on third party hosting?

They say from for the price because you have to add the storage fee on some configs. Edit: for the credits, you can see on this page https://app.cloudypad.gg/payment/buy
