And me from my own server
Tell me more friend. I had a browse, so you've set up your own instance with only your account on. Then from there, you can essentially manage your own version of lemmy/kbin etc. with your own subscriptions and it'll federate those magazines?
I think this could be the answer for the way I intend to go forward.
What I do is setup my own instance so that I connect to my own instance and then it connects to the communites from other instances. I can make my own community and people from other instances can connect to that community.
If I were looking to learn more about this, any good reaources you could point me to?
Following this keenly
Are single user instances viable ?
If you have a server at home, I guess so...
I was thinking, cell phone with a broken screen, more than enough
It doesn't consume a lot of CPU or ram on idle so pretty much
wdym viable? Lemmy instances aren't a business, and afaik the server load depends on the number of users and their activity.
Viable in the sense that, can you even connect to the fediverse as a one user server or do you get insta-blacklisted. Can you post in communities, reply to comments on the fediverse.
You won't see edits though.
Edit: and others won't see yours. This is invisible unless you're on lemmy.ml
