Glad to hear it’s possible. I’ll give it try next week after things hopefully stabilize but with the looming Reddit shutdown on the 12th I might have to wait a bit longer.

I tried pasting a kbin magazine link into the search box but nothing ever showed up in my communities. I would love to be wrong but I’m not sure we can subscribe to their native groups.
I have my own server collocated in a data center so I spun up my instance in a virtual machine. All the infrastructure was ready to go and I’ve got a testing and production environment setup between my colo and my home lab. All that to say I’ve done things like this before so it wasn’t that difficult for me. I complied Lemmy from scratch which I do not recommend unless you really know what you’re doing. Docker would be the easiest way but I don’t really use it so I can’t recommend anything there.
I’m curious to see how this all plays out. I’m running my own instance and it will be interesting to see if small instances get excluded on any large ones due to spam or abuse. Not that I plan on letting that happen with mine but I could see it has an anti abuse measure in the future.
Yeah me too. It’s the only way we can make this work.
