Highly recommend clickhouse. You can set the partition key to be based on date and delete old data in chunks. Makes life really easy. Also found it much more performant than timescaledb out of the box. Not sure about hosted options but can imagine that translates to better performance for the dollar.
Is the cloud a must? What kind of performance are you after?
You could repurpose an old desktop computer / server, slap a 4TB HDD on it and have it run at home or in your office.
I know you said preferably Postgres based, but influxdb has strictly usage based pricing so that might be worth a look. Also you're an open source project and have tight budgetary constraints sometimes you can always ask for a discount, the worst they can say is no.
If you're considering a VPS I'd also check out Hetzner. They only have Germany and Finland locations, but if latency isn't an issue (or if you're in Europe) you can get really good prices there.

The longer you use it, the cheaper it gets.

Supabase is postgres backed and is 25$ a month.
Probably Cloudflare's Workers analytics engine (basically serverless clickhouse)
Clickhouse on a cheap hetzner vm or server?
Prometheus on a decent digital ocean box? A $20/mo vps will handle that load easily, though you may need to buy extra storage depending on data shape.
