I put this together at the weekend and it got some interest on the selfhosting subreddit in its final day :)...

All this new excitement with Lemmy and federation has got me thinking that maybe I should learn to run my own instance. What always comes up though is how email is the orginal federated technology....

Curious if anyone is working on the codebase for Lemmy. I’m sure we all see a few places where it could use some love....

I’ve seen a couple of instances around asking if it’s possible to self host Lemmy fronted by Traefik, figured I can share my test setup with the community. This configuration is still in testing phase but seems to work in a federated configuration....

I recently spun up my own lemmy instance and was wondering if I had to manually add other lemmy instances to the ‘Allowed Instances’ admin field, or if they are added automatically when someone searches for a lemmy instance?

For those self-hosting a lemmy instance, what hardware are you using? I am currently using a small Hetzner VPS. It has 2 vCPU, 2GB RAM and 40GB SSD storage. My instance is currently just in testing with me as the only user, but I plan to use it for close friends or family that may want to try this out, but might not want to sign...

Hi All!...

I’m playing around with my own instance of Lemmy but I keep getting a “websocket connection failed” error in my console. I’m having a really hard time understanding how to set up nginx for websockets - I’m more used to Apache and not familiar with WS at all. Is there documentation hiding somewhere that will help me set...

A simple question to this community, what are you self-hosting? It’s probably fun to hear from each-other what services we are running....

Correct me if I’m wrong. I read ActivityPub standards and dug a little into lemmy sources to understand how federation works. And I’m a bit disappointed. Every server just has a cache and the ability to fetch something from another known server. So if you start your own instance, there is no profit for the whole network...

Hi all, just figured I’d put out there what I’ve currently got running, and see if there are any ideas on what else I can deploy....

Hi all - So I posted about distributed hosting yesterday. I wrote up some thoughts on how I think it could work, and I’m planning to start work on it – if anyone has feedback on my proposal, or wants to get involved to help, 100% let me know as I’d love to hear....

Hi everyone,...

Hello everyone! Mods here 😊...

Over the next week or so I’m sure a lot of people are going to try spinning up Lemmy instances - I’ve certainly been looking at it....

Hey all. Not sure if this is the right place to post this, please point me in the right direction if not:...

I have a spare laptop running Linux Mint. I would like to try running my own instance and sharing it with a few users to help out and for the experience. Below are the specs. Do you think it will be powerful enough, and if so, how many users would it be able to handle? I could restrict uploading of media if that would make a...

Self hosted software awesome list...

Upload of around 40mbps

Hey all,...

Looking for help with moderation, I have my hands full administering this server ;-)...
