Run Tube yourself
- RAM: ~4 GB server (2 vCPU)
- Docker: not detected — install from source or packages
- Storage: plan disk for your data (media/files grow fast); attach a volume or use object storage.
- video transcoding is CPU-heavy; 2+ vCPU or a GPU/iGPU helps

Rough estimate from the app's stack and category, not a benchmark. Several light apps can share one server. Some hosting links may be affiliate links. We may earn a commission at no extra cost to you; it never affects which apps we list.
