Stop flocking to the core worlds, join the fringe! We have the same amenities... Only downside is browsing by All is less diverse
So I don't know enough about the inner workings, but on Reddit I never browsed all at all - it was 100% communities I'd subscribed to. At the moment I'm happy with Lemmy All, but if in the future when content gets too much, would I say, be able to host my own instance in my Android device and my subscriptions will just pull in the content I'm interested in? That way I am not putting load on other instances, and I can take my configuration with me without needing a cloud service?
My understanding is you can't host your own instance on an Android device, you'd need a server. You could stand up a server on Oracle Cloud, their Always Free tier is pretty generous.
