I made the epic mistake of hosting this on a $5/month linode server and this community now has over 100 subscribers

this instance is going to explode

apparently Lemmy stores copies of all images locally which also is wrecking peeformance

What method did you use to get it set up on Linode?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

It's just an Ubuntu server, used docker since I use it to host a lot of my other projects as well.

640MB/1024MB is used on average with all of my projects. Swap is completely full all of the time.
