As long as you make it clear in the sidebar, I think itβs perfectly fine IMHO
Itβs not even that selfish because surprisingly you might even find a few people who like your content and subscribe! Lol

Do not feed my ego. I notoriously fail upward
As the official Fediverse Overlord I say yes whatever thatβs fine do what you want.
I'm many things, but I am not a rule breaker o fedilord.
I think that is primarily for your instance admins to decide.
Might be worth running your own instance so you have complete control of your data.
i do like ansible... do i like ansible more than the money i would spend on a vps? not clear at this time.
I just run it off a system at my house, no hosting costs required. (Besides the domain name I guess)
You can create your own instance of Lemmy and close signups. Just federate it with whichever server you want. That's all
That sounds like a lot of extra steps and I suck at computer
Ya, do it.
