How much resources does Lemmy need? (lemmy.ml)

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.

Not sure how relevant will this be to your question but the admin of the instance I'm on is quite transparent with the server performance etc. and perhaps it'll provide some insight. Also quite interesting was the fact that storage itself is cheap but the bandwidth fees are not (from the comments).

I still haven't figured out how to correctly link to posts on other instances so I'm pasting a direct link hoping a friendly bot finds it and updates it: https://lemmy.zip/post/509553
