Running Lemmy it’s pretty easy. Setup some containers. Unless you plan to open registration but keep the instance only for yourself (like I do), there is really no more maintenance needed.
Probably you don’t even need a server in itself, a PC that stay turned on most of the day will work just fine, data exchange between federated instances will resume then your Lemmy is online
Maybe update the containers periodically and check that disk usage doesn’t grow too much, but that’s up to which and how many communities you subscribe to, since you are the only user of the instance.
















I came from reddit myself… At the time of the great migration.
What did you actually migrate now and not then? Where you on reddit back then?
