Thanks for that response. Is there an easy way to start an instance?
Can you tell me more about the pros and cons of running your own instance? Why did you choose to do that? I’m new at this so I’m very intrigued.
So far I’m really enjoying Lemmy, both the website and Jerboa! But I’m still getting used to the whole federation thing. It’s really weird to get used too. Also there seems to be fewer communities/subreddits. I’m missing specific interests…
But the concept is great! I’m excited to be on a open source social network. The mainstream ones are so unethical.
I honestly don’t know those terms but I’m very tech savvy. I’m running my own home cloud. I play around with Linux. And I just love tinkering until I fully understand how something works. I don’t see the learning curve to be a problem. I’d enjoy the experience which is why I’m seeking it out really. I think I’d really enjoy playing that role in this community.
