Hi all!

I have decided to setup and selfhost my own private Lemmy instance.

I will be doing with docker (podman, actually).

Should I host at home or use a dedicated VPS?

Anybody selfhosting its own Lemmy?

Do you guys have any hints for me?

A lemmy instance hosted behind Tailscale would be unable to federate, no?

Yeah, you're right. Bad advice actually. Oops.
