Selfhosted
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:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
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.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

You have to search them up at least once so they fill some posts, but if you want comments somebody from your instance has to be actively subscribed:
There are directories of all the fediverse like https://browse.feddit.de/ that can help you discover easier.
Could you in theory just have a bot user that subs to all known instances?
i did that partially. I have a bit user subscribed to many communities. Unfortunately that is a fully manual task - currently i don’t have an automated way of doing this
Yes, it is, might have a look at this, I don't think is too hard to make
Wouldn't this result in absolutely massive demands on local storage?
You probably don't want to do this. Just sub to all the communities you want in your self hosted instance. Remember that you can browse communities from different instances on your home instance. My understanding about the default behavior of lemmy and most federated apps is that instances will federate to new instances that request them to by default. Unless your instance is actively being blocked from another instance, it should work. Someone correct me if I am wrong.
