### Easy to run
No external dependencies apart from a database (or just use SQLite!). Simply download the binary + assets (or Docker container), and run.
GoToSocial uses only about 250-350MiB of RAM, and requires very little CPU power, so it plays nice with single-board computers, old laptops and tiny $5/month VPSes.

![Grafana graph showing GoToSocial heap in use hovering around 250MB and spiking occasionally to 400MB-500MB.](../assets/getting-started-memory-graph.png)
In the graph above you can see that RAM usage spikes during periods of load. This happens, for example, when when a status gets boosted by someone with many followers, or when the embedded `ffmpeg` binary is decoding or reencoding media files into thumbnails (especially larger video files).
