For those self-hosting a lemmy instance, what hardware are you using? I am currently using a small Hetzner VPS. It has 2 vCPU, 2GB RAM and 40GB SSD storage. My instance is currently just in testing with me as the only user, but I plan to use it for close friends or family that may want to try this out, but might not want to sign up for a different instance. My CPU and RAM usage is great so far. My only concern is how large the storage will balloon to over time. I’ve been up for ~20 hours and it’s grown to 1.5G total volume since.

    I have it running on my microk8s single node cluster. It’s a dual xeon (40 cores total) with unfortunately only 64gb ram. The motherboard’s max. I got a das with 72tb storage, currently in btrfs mirrored. Hoping btrfs raid-like configs become more usable in the future. I was using zfs but I always ran into issues.
