I've been musing doing this as well, as I really can't find a mastodon server with a ruleset and community that I like, but I'm worried about the required drive space. Are there any affordable VPS hosts that would provide enough storage for a comfortable single-user mastodon instance?
- jedimastert 3y agoWhat's the order of magnitude for space? I feel like it wouldn't be very much at all.
- gidorah 3y agoI would imagine that a small VPS would be fine, so long as you were on top of the data storage. I'm running a single user Masto instance on an NUC. i5, 8GB RAM that I bought for £65. I'm not exactly sure my home upload speeds, but they can't be huge. It's currently using 6GB of storage on media. It is currently set to autodelete, but I assume could grow quite a bit. I can't say Icve noticed any performance issues, however, I suspect I'm a lighter user.
