I would love to hear the answer to this as well. I guess itβs heavily dependent on how many users you have and if they are uploading images or just text, or just lurking.
I think if you did not allow signups it would probably be extremely minimal.
Honestly, I'm interested in knowing some of this too.
https://join-lemmy.org/docs/en/administration/administration.html says about 150GB RAM and negligible CPU usage.
I assume an instance with users subscribed to active communities requires meaningful storage, but I'm not clear the sizes we're talking about (what's data growth per/day been like for some of the larger communities).
EDIT: Likewise, I'd love to know if that 150GB RAM is fixed or whether that number grows with use.
That page says 150 MB (0.15 GB), not 150 GB (150,000 MB) of RAM.
