I plan to have the following services running concurrently on it:

  • A VPN (OpenVPN or Wireguard)
  • A very lightweight personal website
  • A Nextcloud instance (25GB storage max)
  • A Vaultwarden instance
  • An Invidious instance
  • A Matrix server
  • A Lemmy instance

I'm unsure if these would be private or public instances. But I'd be curious to hear any thoughts on how much more space I'd need for public instances too, if you'd have a sense of that.

I currently have a VPS with 2GB RAM + 50GB storage. Would that be enough? Thanks in advance!

I have almost everything you listed running except An Invidious instance and your personal website ofc

  • VPN Server: Practically nothing
  • Nextcloud instance: 731 Mib
  • Vaultwarden: 100 Mib
  • Matrix home server & Database: 1.5 Gib
    • Including bridges(Telegram, Whatsapp, Signal) and Element web 1.91 Gib
  • Lemmy Instance: 200 Mib

Regarding storage: Matrix, Lemmy and Mastodon are gonna eat a lot of storage over time because they have to store media like pictures and videos. If you want i can look how much storage they use in total.
