Hi, can a piefed server be run only locally? Not to get any content from other servers? Local content, local users.
What are the minimum hardware requirements? Like cpu, ram? I understand it can eat more resources based on how much activity it has. But, can i get some examples on how much should or can a intel dedicated machine like 14900k with 64gb ram can handle? Is this software more cpu hungry or more ram needed?

There is also a checkbox somewhere in the admin area which controls whether non-admins can add remote communities or not. So potentially admins could add a couple of remote communities and leave it at that.

With no or low federation, even a Raspberry Pi would be fine.

It's seems right that we should have a local community to help us all with PieFed
