I'm selfhosting Lemmy and its SUPER fast. Just think of it more of a personal caching layer than anything else.

Oh yeah, your instance is fast. That's nice! What hardware are you running on?

Just the cheapest Digital Ocean instance that is on a 2 core CPU. It helps that its just me on there, so I don't have to share with anyone... yet.

A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.
