Railway pricing
Hey friends.
I've been using Railway for a few months now and signed up for the $5 plan.
I see the actual charges are $25.. maybe I didn't understand how the pricing works? I would appreciate an explanation because it turns out really expensive

^ Just added clarification
The hobby plan has a flat rate of 5 dollars, but this is just to have access to the plan
You then get charged for your resource usage as well ( the first 5 dollars of usage is free though )
so if you use a lot of resources then you're likely to pay more than 5 dollars a month
