I’m running my instance from a refurbished Dell Optiplex 5060. It’s a very low power light weight computer. Maybe not as light-weight as a raspberry pi though, I’m not sure on that.

I was also running it on an aws ec2 t3.micro instance with no issue. I only switched to host it locally because I wanted to build for those who own home labs also, and I didn’t want to pay the ~£20 a month for the micro instance.
