I quite happily run HAOS on my raspberry pi 3 to control the lights, my Roomba, and various other devices in my home.

Interacting with it via the home-assistant Android app, or the web interface, I'm never waiting for anything, and interacting via mosh is quite pleasant.

Part of what makes Linux nice is that you can use just what you need.

If what you need includes something like a web browser, then yes; 4 GiB of RAM is going to be a bad time, and 1 GiB is going to be unusable.

I'm doing quite fine with 3.7 GiB, most of the time I barely hit 3 GiB in usage.
