Maxi 12x 💉Wie gut läuft Mastodon mit 1 GiB RAM? 1&1-VPS, aber halt nur 1 GiB RAM. (Nicht für mich.)
Chrisna@frumble For under $20 you can buy a thin client and run linux on it, then you can have a 4 gb web server that only uses a few watts, Youcan also use a $35 raspberry pi, which uses even less power and perhaps more fun becaus of the ecosystem thatcomes with it. You could run mastodon on either of them handily, I'm sure, and the thin client likelyis more scalable as its amd64 compatible as far as software.
@chrisna I know, I know, but this wasn’t the question. I have a VPN of an organization here which could have been a nice Mastodon host if it weren’t so poor-specced…
BTW, no, you cannot run this on a Raspi, because most DSL providers (here) don’t give you a dedicated IPv4 anymore. I have to run my WP blog IPv6-only.

@frumble Oh, thatisjust horrible. Way back in the day when all I could get was a text only shell account, I found a program called "The Internet Assistant" which I used with "screen" the Unix utility, and it basically let me use ipv4 IP applicatios over SLIP. I wonder if you could find a super cheapVPS. I have one that costs only a few dollars a month. I think they have data centers in the EU, they are vultr.com
@chrisna Look, I’m a nerd too, I don’t need your tips. Of course do we have local providers. I was even coming from one but wanted to self-host. It’s not horrible, it’s just annoying that so many households still do not have IPv6 and thus cannot access my site.
@frumble Yes, I want to self host too. Paying for multiple vhosts is getting old. Would like to set up a redundant connection, an AS and peering.
