How much RAM does Nextcloud Talk need?

Plan on 2–4 GB for typical use; add headroom if you expect many concurrent users.

Can I run other things on the same VPS?

Yes — size the plan so Nextcloud Talk plus your other workloads fit in RAM with room to spare.

Communication

Chat, calls and webinars inside Nextcloud.

Text chat, group calls and screen sharing that live inside your existing Nextcloud instance.

If you already run Nextcloud, Talk adds meetings and chat without a second identity system.
