Cost of running a mastodon instance (lemmy.world)

how much does running a mastodon instance of 1000 users costs? Disabling Images and allowing only text is one of my condition. So if I do that, will that change cost? I am thinking of a VPS so that i can have greater control over instance functionality

How much Storage and RAM will be required roughly?

10 to 50 dollars, 400 GB, upgrade later if need be with other services, I think 4gb of ram is enough
