@nshki Thanks for your interest in Hollo!

While we don't have officially documented minimum requirements yet, Hollo is designed for single-user instances and is significantly lighter than multi-user software like Mastodon or Misskey.

Rough guidelines:

• RAM: 2GB recommended (including Node.js and PostgreSQL)
• CPU: 1 vCPU/core should be sufficient
• Storage: 10GB+ (depending on media storage needs)
• Database: PostgreSQL 17+

Real-world deployment:

• Works well on basic VPS plans ($5–10/month tier)
• Runs smoothly on DigitalOcean Droplets, Linode, Vultr starter plans
• Railway's Hobby plan handles it fine
• ARM processors are supported (the official hollo.social instance runs on ARM)

Storage considerations:

• If storing media locally, plan for additional disk space
• Using S3-compatible object storage can help reduce local storage requirements
• Resource usage scales with the number of accounts you follow and federation activity

Since it's single-user software, you can start with minimal resources and adjust as needed based on your actual usage patterns.

@hollo Amazing, thank you very much!
