I want to host a fediverse instance but I need it to be light (limited system resources). Mastodon seems to be kinda heavy. GotoSocial is supposedly very light? (but limited on functionality?) is Pixelfed much heavier? Bonfire is built on elixir so should also be light? Akkoma? Pleroma?

Also, I need it to be engaging to people migrating mostly from IG, so I do need some bells/whistles I guess

thanks!

    Couple hundred users and it’s running on 8GB RAM, 4 vCPU, 160GB NVME storage. Which according to OVH Sydney is about AU$10/m

    But that doesn’t include the the Pict-rs media store so keep that in mind for your storage numbers.
