No it works perfectly fine on a relatively small VPS. Ideally you’d want some redundancy for a form of communication but some people (like me) just wing it lol

Doesn’t synapse need like, a server cluster to run? The self-hostable service is supposed to be something owo, I think.

Not at all. I have my instance sitting on 100MG of RAM and 0% cpu usage. There’s only 3 users that barely use it, but there it is.
It scales by number of users.
It’s true that it’s a resource hog, due to being written in python (who the hell though that), but it all depends on usage.
