What hardware are you using for your self-hosted lemmy instance? (culture0.cc)

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.

This is... Free? TIL

It is but Oracle can take it back without justification.

Yeah exactly, I wouldn’t recommend it for anything production grade if you’re not paying

Until everyone starts doing it, Oracle can be...fun to deal with
