Just in case anyone is using their account here to post to off-instance communities: those posts and comments seem to have a very high failure rate. There is a lot of activity and accounts on this instance. This is to raise awareness, not to pull people away or break up the lemmyverse. Quite the opposite really: there is a technical problem on this instance that might be preventing the lemmyverse from functioning as it should.
Just trying to get a sense if it’s worth bothering with my 10Mbit up.
It’s really quick to get running. You need a fairly reliable IP/hostname as this is how your server will talk to all other servers and users. If you use dynamic dns, make sure it’s rapidly updated if your ip changes.
Yeah, I just don’t want to set it up, realize it’s trashing my home connection, and then have to boot off those ten users. Maybe I’ll set one up with just me, then if everything is alright, add one more and see. Thanks for the tips! :)
