      I do but dunno if I have the time or energy, as it would not only be the tech part, you’d have to also moderate the place yourself and I’m very averse to do that sort of thing again

        That’s really my main concern too. Also, I am already on call at my day job, I’d rather not sign up to do that for a passion project too.

        One thing I’ve thought of is trying to set up a an instance that mirrors some subreddits via RSS. No comments though, because API access.

        If you don’t have time or energy, but do have money, consider donating to this instance or others that vibe with what you’re looking for! 💜

      Are there docs or docker containers out there already for this? Anyone with an unraid server could be offloaded to their own instances if it gets published in their community apps store (it just needs a config file to make it work on there IIRC).

      Are there any hosting providers for Lemmy yet, like Masto.host and Spacebear offer for other federated software?

      I’m working on getting my instance up and running. I’m worried that by the time I do, I’ll get slammed with new account registrations and won’t be able to get things running smoothly.
      ¯\_ (ツ)_/¯

      Skills and resources. The fact that Beehaw is slammed with only 451 users per day shows that running a Lemmy instance is pretty compute-intensive, so you’ll need some beefy hardware.
