Yes that was their call since they don’t want people to run swap files. Not enough memory is the “real” reason.

Just do the manual setup following our [official install](https://meta.discourse.org/t/142537?silent=true) guide, which includes swap file as part of the setup and works fine on the 1GB RAM plan.

512mb ram was never ever ever supported, so not sure what you are referring to there.
