I wonder what the stats on running a lemmy instance are.

How much time needs to be invested, how much data storage is needed, what kind of traffic volume is to be expected?

    The boring answer is: It depends.

    Is all about the traffic and number of users which is dynamic and not same for everyone.

    If it’s only for yourself then you could host an instance on a raspberry pie for sure.

    If you’re looking to create a big instance with many users you’ll need a lot of power and storage.

    It’s almost impossible to put the requirements down on paper. Sure you could estimate with enough data.
