How do I create my own Lemmy Serve? (midwest.social)

I've searched and it seems that information is limited. I have a mini PC in my office not doing anything and would like to make it into a proper Lemmy server. It seems a bit involved and while I'm technically inclined it's over my head. I already have a domain but I have absolutely no idea where to go from here.

Google the lemmy-ansible repository. You'll need to install Linux on your PC first.

Or setup wsl. That's what I used to deploy Ansible

I've read about ansible, I just have no idea what it is or how it works. I've already got Ubuntu running on my computer.

It follows instructions and replicates them automatically. AKA auto-install.

For a second, I thought you were giving some "Silence of the Lambs" instructions there.

It follows instructions or else it gets the hose again...
