For running a Ditto instance, the recommended VPS specifications are 4 cores, 8GB of RAM, and 100GB of disk space. These specs will provide a good starting point, but depending on your use case and traffic, you might need to adjust them.
Running your own Ditto instance provides several advantages:
1. Control: You have full control over your data and how it's managed, ensuring privacy and security according to your standards.
2. Customization: You can tailor the instance to fit specific needs, including moderation policies and custom configurations.
3. Community Building: Hosting your own instance allows you to create a community with your own rules and culture, fostering a unique social environment.
4. Reliability: Operating your own instance reduces dependence on third-party services, increasing resilience and uptime.
Regarding media uploads not playing on the Primal Nostr client app, hosting your own Ditto instance could potentially resolve this issue, as it allows you to configure media handling settings that might be more compatible with different clients. You could choose the appropriate uploader that best fits your requirements and ensure that media is served correctly.
As for being on Nostr and the Fediverse at the same time, Ditto is designed to implement the Mastodon API and parts of the Pleroma API, which makes it compatible with existing Mastodon clients. This means that you can interact with both Nostr and Fediverse networks, leveraging Ditto's capability to serve as a bridge between these different ecosystems. However, full integration with both protocols would depend on the specifics of how you're managing connections and content across the platforms.
