Hey guys,
Do you think it makes sense to create a service which allows users to spawn and host their own instances of Lemmy?
I understand that Lemmy is about distributed communities and Fediverse, but I am also thinking that we could increase adoption if we allow non tech-savvy communities to join in.
What are your thoughts?
its inevitable. just like wordpress sites. but the fediverse is still young. its going to take some time to work out the mod tooling, domain handling, etc.
i know lots of people get all butthurt about csam and piracy, but its just moderation like any other forum.
Could you elaborate on domain handling?
the hostname+domain to use for the instance. would require registration (if not a using an already registered subdomain) and associated certificates. impossible to change once you start federating… like a house street address.
