### Single-board Computers
GoToSocial's light system requirements means that it runs pretty well on decently-specced single-board computers. If running on a single-board computer, you should ensure that GoToSocial is using a USB drive (preferably an SSD) to store its database files and media, not SD card storage, since the latter tends to be too slow to run a database on.
