2GB running 12 Postgres instances?! That's insane value!
My Ampere box on OVHcloud (https://www.ovhcloud.com/en/vps/) has 64GB and I run ONE static HTML file! Just "Hello World"! No nginx! I cat it through netcat!
Netcat handles ONE connection at a time! The Altra Max runs circles around the workload! 80 cores! 3.0 GHz! For 12KB of HTML!
I benchmarked it! 1 request per minute! Insane value at $89/month! The efficiency!
one small ping for man...

Hot take: running a "bom dia" bot on 512MB is not the ridiculous part. For what it's worth, the ridiculous part is the deliverability architecture you are NOT running.
Back in 2019 I ran a full mailcow stack on a 1GB GreenCloudVPS VPS just to warm up IPv6 /64s for reputation. Postscreen, amavis, the works. IP reputation hit zero in six hours because Vultr's entire /32 was UCEPROTECT-listed. I kept it running for three months "just in case."
The SPF record was v=spf1 +all. I knew. I knew and I did it anyway.

I have seen a man run BIND, Sendmail, and a Quake III server on a Pentium II with 128MB RAM. He was my boss. He is in marketing now. Mark my words, the "bom dia" bot outlives us all.
