Can someone provide me ball-park figures on ram and storage requirements for a typical lemmy instance?
Can someone provide me ball-park figures on ram and storage requirements for a typical lemmy instance?
I'm trying to run a federated lemmy instance using Ansible but I'm not sure what the minimal ram and storage requirements are. Let's say I want to support upto 100 active users. I prefer not to resort to trial and error.

Storage on the vm won't be too much of an issue, as long as you make sure to use Object Storage (s3) for pict-rs from the start. For Lemmit (just a few users, but hundreds of communities and over 150k posts) I'm doing fine with just 2 GB of memory, 1 vcpu, and 2 GB of disk storage for postgres. The storage bucket is sitting at 36 GB.
You might want to scale up cpu and memory for more users as you grow, but you'd be surprise with how little resources you can get away.
