I’m personally on matrix.org, but it’s like with Lemmy. It’s federated so you can do as you please. I think self-hosting requires a decent amount of resources, but I haven’t looked into it all that deeply.
You can self host on a PC or VM with as little as 1GB RAM and 1 CPU core (although you’ll want closer to 4GB RAM and 2 cores if you join really large public rooms, since it takes more resources to talk to hundreds/thousands of other instances). Fairly easy to stand up too, if you use something like this ansible script.

That’s not so bad! Thanks for the info.
