My idea is this: I just want to send to a server like this a request from my domain name and username, but I don't want to run a full instance. Is this technically possible?

Why not join an instance in this case? Let someone else handle running the instance and you post from whatever client you'd like?

I joined two of them and they both went down

You'd have to use a full instance either way, so if you somehow got your own domain using another instance, you'd still be relying on their instance.

It's basically joining an instance but with extra steps

I mean, I could write a server that redirects the notifications pushed to me and read the actual posts on the instances themselves

Why not just run your own instance of the Lemmy software? This is essentially what you are asking to do.
