what is better for single user instance, or maybe something small like under 10 users (no communities)? which is lighter on resources? how much storage should I allocate?
any alternatives to lemmy and kbin that are still somewhat similar?

While I quite enjoy the Interface of KBin over Lemmy. It seems Lemmy uses a lot less resources based on the “Admin Guides” for each service.
