Matrix on Raspberry Pi - eviltoast

Hi! I’ve done some research on self hosting Matrix for Matrix Bridges on a Raspberry Pi 5. Some people have said online that Matrix will be too beefy for an RPI due to large federated chatrooms and information. However, would it still be worthwhile installing just for my own bridges for social media, and maybe as a secure way for friends to interact?

Thanks in advance!

    That’s quite big for a raspberry pi. Going to upgrade an old 2018 gaming computer into a server now. All it needed was a hard drive and a wifi antenna (My dad won’t let me run an ethernet cable to my room ☹️). I was running out of Google storage anyway for my photos, so I’ll set that up as well.
