I’ve been in Lemmy for a month and I’m quite enjoy using the service.

However, after the mass migration on both Reddit and Twitter, I feel like the services are now significantly slower than they used to be. So I’m wondering whether I should have some kind of personal CDN/relay service for “caching” information especially medias or just create a new instace and federated to public Lemmy instance?

FYI, I have a private OpenVPN served on DO and 1L “server” that run Proxmox for existing services to my home. Should be okay to have a Nginx reverse proxy, right?

    I would think that updating 50.000 Lemmy instances would have a similar performance effect of 50.000 Lemmy users browsing one instance.

    Only if the users are browsing All their watched communities 24/7. Otherwise they would only be producing load when they’re interacting with Lemmy.
