What are the hardware requirements for hosting a Lemmy instance for a single account? (lemmy.world)

I'm interested in possibly hosting my own Lemmy instance - just for my own account. I was thinking of hosting it on Raspberry Pi (possibly the 1GB Pi 4 B), but I couldn't find much for definitive information on what the hardware requirements would be for such an instance to know if this is even possible. How much storage is required? Is the Pi 4 CPU powerful enough? How much memory?

On my $5 linode server with 1 gigabyte of ram and 1 CPU core, it runs okay. Storage will be my biggest issue, swap is always full, and memory usage is about 70%
