So far, I like what’s been built here. There are a few things I’d change, but they’re not dealbreakers. My main concern is the voting system and how it works. Otherwise, Lemmy seems like a solid option. I’m not sure how much voting can be disabled or changed on an instance.
I’m considering either hosting a Lemmy instance for nightash.net, where I currently run a traditional forum, or building something closer to the architecture I described here .
I’d appreciate feedback, especially from people who might be interested in using it.
Maybe worth considering moving to Mbin instead? Piefed from what I can tell is somewhere in the middle of the two.
Otherwise, if you self-host, put the limit to some astronomical level so no human would reach it. Or comment the limit out if possible.
