Hey. I really like the idea of the fediverse and Lemmy and would want to know as a beginner/not so experienced regarding selfhosting what would be the best way to get started? I saw there are vps options, but don’t know of I’m looking in the right direction.
What I’m curious about is running a server only for myself. Am I gonna have problems with being defederated? I’m wanting to run Matrix right next to it on the same domain but they seem much more open to the concept of personal servers.
it’s alright, i run a personal server with closed registrations. looking for new communities is a bit glitchy, you might need to search a few times before it appears.
Using their docker set up as well and I thought it was quite lean. Out of curiosity, what do you think is overcomplicated about it?
No, I don’t think so. I’ve just been adding sub…“lemmys” and the flow is a little wonky but it seems to be working well after a few days.
