If anyone here is running an instance on Lemmy, I'd like to know the system requirements recommended. I want to run an instance on a VPS, probably just as an account server.

What type of VPS can I get by on, for just accounts on an instance? How much storage space would I need to do just an "account instance", and how much would I need for a full instance with maybe a few small communities?

See I would like to help out if I could and open up my instance since I’m sitting on a lot of unused hardware, but I’m just not really interested in moderating.

Nothing wrong with that, admin'ing an instance is a pretty serious job. I wonder how many instances will fold once they realize what they really signed up for. I lucked out in finding a new Lemmy instance from an experienced mastodon admin team so I have some faith that they're not in for a rude awakening.
