If one hosts a Lemmy instance, do they need to also host, and/or link to the source code even if they have made no changes to it? (lemm.ee)

Lemmy is licensed under the AGPLv3. I don't want to rely solely on my own legal interpretation of the license, so I'm wondering if anyone has any explicit knowledge on the matter.

As an aside, am I correct in assuming that, if someone does make changes to the source code, they must host, and link to it?

EDIT (2023-09-27T22:22Z): I am just now seeing that at the bottom of a Lemmy instance's site, there is a link that says "Code". It appears that this is handled automatically.

I have found that instances that do seem to modify the source code just use the existing "Code" link and simply point it to their own repo instead.

Yeah, that would work as well
