If this commenter is to be believed it was a 3 year contract prepaid at 20ish per year

Mentioned and dismissed in the article, fwiw.

Any reason to believe one claim over the other?

It’s not clear to me that the article actually contradicts it

this article says it was straight up 65m for the year

otoh the throwaway also mentioned the in-house grafana/prometheus solution that this article described

I don’t think it does. It says that much was due that year.

thanks for the correction, seems i misread it.

it does seem like the article attacks the throwaway without evidence

The article is accurate

I misunderstood and thought this was a bill paid q1 2023 (after the new 3 year contract) not in q1 2022
