      They could really do with better explanation of the federated servers before people sign up. I did do a little research before I knew which instance to use

        Well, that’s why open source is so powerful - everything can (and, in fact, should) be done by community for community

        Usually developers aren’t good writers :)

        I still hope it will become easier one day to Docker-host a Lemmy instance where other Docker setup and containers are already present and cannot be changed just for Lemmy.

          I spun up a separate instance because I didn’t even want to bother trying to roll my own unsupported reverse proxy config. And things are still glitchy enough as is. It’s a fun learning experience, though. Sometimes the less polished things are, the more opportunity there is to learn

          Yeah, I admittedly havent looked into it too much but if it were easy enough I’d set up an instance at the very least to host users.

        You know what? I think it’s good if it’s not that accessible. The internet has turned to shit because every fucking idiot with a phone has such easy access to it. It’s good if people have to think for a minute before being able to participate. It’s not difficult, but it might cull the toxic bullshit people a bit.

        Yeah, I’m sure it’s only getting worse… I’m in a few instances, and haven’t payed too much attention to what others were around for a couple of weeks now.
