I'm trying to see if I can host my own Fediverse instance for friends and family and I want to know what kind of device would be required. I'm an absolute beginner to self-hosting so I was wondering if I can start cheap (Raspberry Pi 2GB RAM is something I can definitely consider).

Also, can one device host multiple software? Like if I wanted both a WordPress instance and a Hubzilla instance or a Matrix/XMPP instance

I have friendica, lemmy, gotosocial, and streams (hubzilla 2.0?, havent tried it yet) on one server and its not using much 8core 16gb from littlecreek look en up on lowendtalk signup and comment with invoice to double the ram, they have two deals one is 7$ a month, one is 9$ make sure you click the right listing since the 7$ one is the same exact specs, they also have 3.50 for 4core 8gb which is more than enough too
