Should be fixed now! It wasn't actually Toby's fault; it was a preexisting bug caused by using the markdown editor.

Hi Vasco. Sorry about that - our Mathjax processing was being a bit overzealous and decided that your dollar signs were creating a math block. Should be fixed now - thanks for letting us know!

Render is a a lot cheaper than Vercel, and the forum has quite a lot of cron jobs that are more annoying to setup using a serverless architecture. We also had a good experience using Render when we built Forethought's new website last year. We're still using Vercel for all of our other sites though (at least, for now).
