Hello, How much does a small matrix server that I and my friends can use cost on average? I will also set up Whatsapp, Signal and Discord bridge on the server.

Synapse has been very much optimized lately. Dendrite won’t save space on media. Probably not on database, and it hasn’t been optimized for small memory use yet.
“for instance Synapse uses 5-10x less RAM than it used to (my personal federated server is only using 145MB of RAM atm!” - https://matrix.org/blog/2022/08/15/the-matrix-summer-special…
How does that compare to Dendrite?
That’s impossible. Maybe it uses 1/5th or 1/10th of the RAM. But if you use 5 times less, that is 500% less, which would amount to Synapse downloading the system 4 times more RAM than it used to use.
Yeah, it’s an unfortunate expression, but not mine, so I didn’t edit when quoting.
Dendrite is still trying to reach spec compliance. IIUC they haven’t spent much effort on optimizing resource use.
