What are the recommended server specs for different Fediverse software? (Especially Hubzilla) (lemmy.ml)

I'm trying to see if I can host my own Fediverse instance for friends and family and I want to know what kind of device would be required. I'm an absolute beginner to self-hosting so I was wondering if I can start cheap (Raspberry Pi 2GB RAM is something I can definitely consider).

Also, can one device host multiple software? Like if I wanted both a WordPress instance and a Hubzilla instance or a Matrix/XMPP instance

@absurdity_of_it_all I’m running Friendica on a Debian virtual machine with 5 gigs of ram allocated to it. The physical hardware is an M2 Mac Mini.
