I tried self hosting it,but it felt very resource intensive on my vps. It’s a really good bookmark manager, feature rich and all. But I feel like it could have been lighter.

        Er, phones have had 4gb for years.

        2gb for a system… My 2012 laptop has 4gb (Yes, 2012, 13 years old).

          When running containers it’s not uncommon to relocate just 512 mb for lighter processes.

          There’s a big difference between desktop environment needs and headless server needs.

          Anything with user interaction will require an enormous number of additional services, which consumes resources.

          I expect to run simple headless software on 256-512 MB of RAM. For example.

            Sure I can.

            You’re complaining about needing 4gb of RAM on a virtualized platform in 2025, when 4gb of ram was common on a laptop (which is heavily space constrained) thirteen years ago.

            It’s a fair comparison.

            When I spin up a VM for Linux, it’s 4gb - that’s the minimum today, because the virtualization platform will over-commit ram as it knows how to best utilize it.

            I can run a Linux box in 2gb, but as soon as I start doing anything with it, more ram will be required.

              Laptops usually run desktop environments which are quite resources intensive. You can easily run some Docker services on 2GB. The debian VM that natively runs my nginx reverse proxy has 512 MB RAM and works perfectly fine.

                I’m running Urbackup in a Dietpi VM, with 256Mb RAM. Works fine.

                Urbackup server is running about 70Mb RAM idle.

                I could probably go down to 128Mb for the whole VM, but that’s is pointless and it might start to struggle during a backup session.

            And?

            VPS it’s trivial to have the ram you need. My laptop had 2 memory slots. A VPS has how many? Oh, yea, it’s virtualized. 🤦🏼
