With our growth numbers and with kbin finally with Lemmy again, things around the link aggregator fediverse feel more active than ever. Today when browsing all on Jerboa I saw so many more communities, posts, and comments than even yesterday. It's starting to feel like we have some real traction going on here. Let me know if you agree or disagree.

I decided to self-host my own instance for that reason. That way I'm actually totally in control of what I'm seeing. It does make finding new communities less organic, but it's easy enough with the new listing tools. Probably not worth the money if all I ran on my server was Lemmy, but as an added service it's great.

I do have a homelab and could easily self-host a personal Lemmy instance if I wanted. But I'm not sure if it's worth the effort.

The ansible install on ubuntu wasn't too bad, tbh. I haven't touched anything backend since I installed, and it's been chugging!

Yeah it seems simple enough. But even for a single instance user the would be many things to figure out, such as how to federate with other instances.

Relaxed section for discussion and debate that doesn't fit anywhere else. Whether it's advice, how your week is going, a link that's at the back of your mind, or something like that, it can likely go here.
