I will rent a v-server today with those specs: 2 CPU cores, 4GB RAM, 80GB disk space

I think it's enough to run normal websites and even a game server, but I have no experience with the Fediverse.

Is this enough to run a few fediverse instances, like Lemmy and Mastodon or even others?

How much resources does Lemmy need in particular?

Thank you for your help.

I'm endlesscomfort, no budget to change the name to me

me and winter are waiting for matches to finish

the closer a contestant is to the trophy the more games they've won

I'm imaging it'll vaguely be like the peach battle https://lemmy.perthchat.org/post/72118

how to help. Ideas, cool pictures i could put together. Fan art. OCs. A story etc.

tournament note for self; winter won in 51 moves

u/Endlesscomfort doesnt like the cold so he ran away and i subbed in for them

tournament note for self; liwott won in 21 moves

we can make this a tradition when people start on lemmy.ml/(twitter/fb/etc) and then make an announcement post with their account contributions and announce account retirement, and choosing a smaller instance to migrate to. Also making the choice whether to confirm their next identity or continue anonymously.

part of the fediverse chess tournament.

Can't find the news paper sub

People hate reading, so i'll copy paste the important points from my previous posts here.

if you can help with graphics or advertising to get more people to join thatd be great!

Format

Round robin. Each person is playing 2 games, finals might be 3 games

Rules:

• Feel free to ~~gentleman~~ gentlecoin to whatever rules you want. But i'd recommend allow 1 undo each, especially if you're both inexperienced. If you're experienced and the person you're playing against is inexperienced, consider giving them more undos.

• Best of 1

• in my experience lichess works best if you register, but not required though clearing your cookies will break the game iirc!!! https://lichess.org/

• Both people have to report who won here. Both of you also attempt to report how many moves it took for you to win, might be used for tie breaking.

• Dont cheat ex by having a grandmaster computer play for you

• Do at least 1 move a day

Gambling:

• I'm down to bet an imaginary currency like [email protected] or cat girls or what have you. 1v1 me sib!

Would be cool if you upload your match so we can see what happened!

feddit.de vs lemmy.ml

I'm willing to bet whatever you want to bet. I'm putting it all on ahegao peach for this round

This took long a.h. to make.

Not gonna make promo art for every match, but if you want to help me, please do. Retweet this image folks!

i'm still hoping more ppl join so havent made the other brackets just yet, especially when you share the image!

Peaches - arrange your match, ideally in the comments but where ever, let me know when you start the match!

Format:

Edit: round robin, not an even number that is easily divisible into a bracket. Each person is playing 2 games, finals might be 3 games

Rules:

• Feel free to ~~gentleman~~ gentlecoin to whatever rules you want. But i'd recommend allow 1 undo each, especially if you're both inexperienced. If you're experienced and the person you're playing against is inexperienced, consider giving them more undos.

Roses are red

Violets are blue

You're gonna sign up for this chess tournament

How to play:

0. Most important! Share this event as widely as possible! Post on the fediverse and even on your Facebook, Reddit, tiktok etc

1. Sign up in the comments here. Just say your signing up.

2. I'll arrange brackets. Or if you particularly want to play someone, mention it in the comments and I'll pair you guys up

3. I'm open to suggestions, but lichess seems like the easiest way to set up matches, but really, if you can get your opponent to agree to use like Minetest chess, go for it!

4. If someone off the fediverse wants to play, have them contact me somehow. You could even relay their messages to me.

prizes:

• once the fedizens enquirer news paper is up and running, you'll be featured there.

• myself, @[email protected], Michael from Perthchat and/or @[email protected] will simp for you

• paid tournament will follow later on, if enough interest

Has this ever been attempted before?
