Is there a quality guide for how to do this? Preferably hosted rather than my home server.

Use the ansible Lemmy install, it's very simple and will also create https certs and everything. But you need a domain first, pointed at your hosted server ip address.

https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ansible

So basically:

  • Buy domain
  • Rent a server somewhere (hetzner is great and cheap).
  • Point domain at server ip.
  • Use the ansible install against your server to install everything.

That's pretty much it. The ansible install takes care of everything.

Then you need to subscribe to some other instance community from your instance so other instances know you exist, for federation to work.

Awesome, thanks.

How much power does it take to run an instance? Not planning on hosting my own, just curious. I read stories about people being able to hose a Mastodon instance on a Raspberry Pi.

Perhaps point me one that you, in your judgment, think is particularly good?

Im just a noob thats interested. I havent tried it yet. But ive found a couple guides.

Check out the self hosting communities. Ill see if i can find the one im thinking of but Lemmy also has an official guide in the documentation.
