So what do you guys think about this? I think it's pretty good and we
should jump on it. We can't post on Twitter as we don't have access to
that. How about instead offering them to put their logo on the site?
In case anyone is wondering, the price would be 16.4€ per month.

Hi Katherine,
No worries. Thanks for getting back to me.
For the CI service, the faster the better as far as the server CPU performance is concerned. The DX292 would be optimal for our use case. I realize that it's quite expensive and thus if that server is out of the question, the AX160-NVME would be a good second option for us.
The length of usage would be indefinite. The server itself would be used primarily by roughly 30 developers and an automated CI system. We have a bit more than 10000 packages.
We don't know how many end users the distribution has as we don't have any way to track that but we have a few hundred mirrors by volunteers and assuming every mirror has 1000 users, that puts us at a few 100k users. We're usually in the top 10 list of distributions at distrowatch.org http://distrowatch.org.
Thank you for your consideration.
Many regards,
Sven-Hendrik Haase

Please accept my sincerest apologies for just now responding to you about this.
Could you please let me know specifically which Hetzner Online product(s) you have in mind for your CI/CD service? Which specific dedicated servers and/or cloud models would you need and for how long? Could you also provide a bit more information about how many projected users you would have?
Thanks in advance!
Kind regards,
