And I found a way to run it for $0 using $300 Vultr credit for new users. Full step-by-step guide: antonpecherkin.github.io/runfcx/

I tried runfcx and it works well! My read node synced, wallet login succeeded, and I can read my feed through my own node. A 1 TB disk was enough for my setup (574 GB used). My full review: farcaster.xyz/b4b/0x868cfaef86c727493c59cbbafb5a42d1895d1f21

Fun stat from my brand-new node 👀 Out of the last 100 casts in my feed, only 48 came through the official app. The other 52 came from 10 different clients, a lot of them people's own apps. Mine is on that list now too. Bonus: the restore kept running while my laptop slept 😴

Thanks @aap! The guide is very clear and my own read node is synced and running. Casting this reply from it.
Went through it end to end: rented the server, the agent synced the node, I logged in and posted from my own node. My vouch: farcaster.xyz/mddvm/0x373bebe2
