Just curious how much it would cost to run an instance? Maybe with 1,000-10,000 users? Also are there any hosts that ya’ll recommend? I am most familiar with Digital Ocean but DO may not be the best area to host an instance.
Apologizes if this is the wrong community to post this in. I am not sure where to find any info on pricing estimates
I don’t have an answer but I’m also quite interested to find out what kind of server specs are we talking to get off the ground? Would love to hear from someone that has recently started their own…
I have no idea about minimum requirements to get off the ground, but lemmy.ml mods recently made this post: https://lemmy.ml/post/1234235 in wich they state they use a dedicated server with 6 cores/12 threads and 32 gb ram.
