I’m wanting to run my own SimpleX chat server and set up a Monero node as well.
Can this be done on the same machine? I was considering getting a mini PC to do this so it wouldn’t be too much of an issue with it being always on.
Or should I take a different approach and set up both separately on two different machines like a raspberry pi or something?
As I’m sure you can tell I don’t have a lot of experience with self hosting anything but want to get into it to help strengthen the networks of these communities I care about.
Plus the need to open ports on the home router and ensuring more than 100 GB won’t piss off the ISP.
which isp does that?
Some are sensitive to upstream traffic, it really depends.
Its just that i never had any problems with any italian or french isp, and I upload 100gbs or more daily
3 GB / day is unlikely to go unnoticed upstream.
And depending on your connection you’ll also need some kind of domain, dyn DNS and reverse proxy
It’s not clear that these services need any of these things.
