That is the reason why I self host my own private instance.

Just out of curiosity

I have my own instance (gadgetro.id), but it isn't set to private. Are you still able to browse other accounts on the fediverse from your instance when set to private?

[–] Archlinuxforever@lemmy.3cm.us 1 points 1 year ago

I don't even know if it's set to private. If you mean browsing accounts from subscribed communities then yes.

What's the hardware and network demand like ? I've been vaguely thinking of doing so myself.

My friends instance, crystals.rest, is hosted on a $5/mo Linode with 1GB of RAM

[–] Archlinuxforever@lemmy.3cm.us 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The lxc container in Proxmox is at around 500 MB of ram usage, 1.35 GB of network traffic, and less than 1% CPU usage. Although I'm the only one using the instance.

Thanks, appreciated.

Edit

I assume you mean 1.35gb of network data per day ? As opposed to per minute / per second etc

[–] Archlinuxforever@lemmy.3cm.us 0 points 1 year ago

Yeah that is the total amount of network data used since I set it up yesterday.
