I have my own empty instance!

All the power, all to myself...

Oh, you have no idea how tired I am of logging out before shutting down.

Happy for this!

Same; I'm more of a stable guy :P

Lol.

But why?

Well, I just hope they ARE thinking. Gotta be a good reason -I have no read anything about this- for doing this.

I guess a few people might be looking at other distros now.

I have my instance publically available, and been using Lemmy through it since. I have a couple of local communities (non-private) that I hope people start using, but hard being discovered, it seems.

Started out with 1.6G usage day one, and since then I have grown to 1.96G.

Crab is Rust, but the last one...

My thoughts exactly; One less distro to hop to.

Didn't think about that!

Oh well, hopefully this'll soon be far out of this world..

I'm using Proxmox and Docker-Compose. My instance is on an alpine LXC.

Very happy with it.

I lold

Anyone had any experiences upgrading 7.4 -> 8 ?

Thinking of doing it, but kinda worried. Can't be bothered with reinstalling.

Well, if it's your first time selfhosting and setting up your environment, I'd to things in steps. Great thing about virtualization is that you can snapshot.

Once you get proxmox up and running, choose an OS to virtualize, snapshot once made. Snapshot once configuration for users etc, snapshot once docker has been installed, snapshot after docker-compose has been configured.. You get the idea.

Set up backup of the VMs/containers, set up lemmy using the official docker-compose step-by-step guide. Once you reach it on port 80, set up nginx.
