I have an Oracle Always Free VPS. 4 ARM Ampere A1 vCPUs, 24GB RAM, 200GB storage. Will this be a good fit as a server for a Lemmy instance? Are there any issues with hosting Lemmy on aarch64?

    I’m aware, thanks

    Ended up creating an instance just for me, my main reasons were:

    • not scared of instance shutting down and me losing my data - if I do, that’s on me
    • can block federation to an entire instance if I really don’t like some people
    • cool username
    • I don’t really get lag - if other instances are overloaded they work slowly, mine will work fine. Content from the slow ones will be slow, but the homepage will be better
    • I can make myself a community and use it as a blog

    I probably forgot about something too…
