kbin.social was the first thing on the recommended list.

    I’m running a lemmy instance and using about 700mb, up from 500mb before I had any users (though I have maybe a dozen active users lmao)

    But I’m not using much CPU at all though. 5% average on a 2core VPS VM. 4 gigs as well. I can scale up a bit and still afford it personally. After that Ill have to ask for donations, and if not enough stop registration.

      The scaling is from my cloud provider, hopefully I won’t have to scale up to the max (looks like it’d be like $1300/mo)

      700mb of ram isn’t bad at all. Yeah I’m using like 30% cpu on a 2 core right now. Kbin definitely uses more resources than lemmy but I think it has a lot more going on in the tech stack

          Yeah if my instance got busy enough that would be something to definitely consider. I’m using DigitalOcean over something like AWS as well. I wouldn’t want to run it out of my home off of my own network though which is why VPS providers are nice (plus I have all my DNS rules set up through it)

              Have any recommendations how to locate one near me? I’ve never heard of something like that before

                I’ve never used a colo before; my rack servers live happily in my basement. If you google say “1U network colo <city name>” you’ll find many providers.
