I am thinking about hosting my own Mastodon server from home on a Raspberry Pi (Pi4 8GB)?

  1. Are there good tutorials out there?
  2. What’s the annual cost just to host yourself?

    A raspberry pi isn’t fit for hosting public services. Your likely looking for a VPS.

      Maybe not high traffic services, if it’s being self hosted the limiting factor is probably the upload bandwidth anyway. I’m not sure how resource intensive Mastodon is to host though.
