AWS on a free tier ec2
AWS on a free tier ec2
My personal instance is 2 vcpu 1gb ram and 30gb storage. It’s just me using it, but it’s running rather decently, so maybe if it’s just a few people you could get away with something like that
For my personally, I’m hosting an instance so that I can play with it, but also so that I can test new functionality, and help fix issues.
So I think if you are concerned about being a burden, then actively use your instance for the betterment of lemmy!
Bit clickbait. tldr: ffmpeg used it in their github actions, which pulls from gmp. They also use 100 builds to do simultaneous testing. Forks also run the actions, and it all pounds the gmp servers.
