feature request: Add server minimum specifications

Open ghost opened this issue 1 year ago • 10 comments

What do you want to see?

Hi! I love this open-source self-hostable chat, but I was wondering what the minimum server requirements are to deploy this server. Thank you! I am using an e2-micro GCP instance (since I want to do this for free), but Revolt server hosting fails. Thank you.

...isn't e2-micro barely enough to run bash?

someone said 2gb of ram, and 10gb of storage. Best guess we've got.

nah i would say with 4 vcpus, with mine only 2gb ram and 1vcpu was lagging very laggy

Definitely not, you can easily host a vaultwarden instance for example, or any other static website (with very few traffic ofc)

yeah, that was just an exaggeration. it is entirely possible to run lightweight apps, but Revolt surely isn't one of them.

Spoiler: n o p e. Also, on ARM using emulation, it also is unusably slow.
