I want to host a fediverse instance but I need it to be light (limited system resources). Mastodon seems to be kinda heavy. GotoSocial is supposedly very light? (but limited on functionality?) is Pixelfed much heavier? Bonfire is built on elixir so should also be light? Akkoma? Pleroma?
Also, I need it to be engaging to people migrating mostly from IG, so I do need some bells/whistles I guess
thanks!
EDIT: The instance is supposed to be hosting a community of 100-200 people. Maybe even more in the future (in which case we would probably migrate to another server)
Having a “facebook pages” / mini website / pixelfed portfolio is very functional for the people I plan to invite.


@geoma @Tealk You are running #yunohost like I am? What server reaourcew do you have? Running both Friendica and Pixelfed is an option but without knowing more about your situation…
I am running yunohost and have a pretty decent computer but I am sharing it for a bunch of different services so I need to keep usage as light as possible
@geoma Oh right yeah I am using a VPS. What kind of specs does your server have?
