Digital Ocean is used as an example because they have a quick setup Mastodon option. It looks like $14/mo minimum if you’re going to run Elastisearch. Without that tool in memory you might get away with 1GB of memory which is $7/mo. But the author also notes that with Elastisearch his VPS uses about 2GB of ram so he’s actually running the 4GB $21/mo plan.
