(the good part of having invested in crypto in 2014)
Good News! NodeBB is looking for benevolent donors 😆
My current forum has over 731,000 posts. Will NodeBb be able to handle this?
That sucks. -_-'
You should be OK on a mongodb install - AfraidToAsk is on Redis, and with their amount of posts they are still surviving on a relatively affordable VPS.
MangoLassi has many fewer posts but all of their posts were made from NodeBB, not imported. So while the "size" isn't so big, the traffic is very high. MongoDB and a VPS instance and no performance issues. Just coming up on 30K posts, but very active.
Your next question will probably be, concurrent active users and the load NodeBB can handle...
Leave that one open for a bit, there's a new post coming in every couple of seconds (MongoDB install, btw)
