Has anyone looked into this?
I having tried running lemmy on a virtual machine yet, but It looks fairly straight forward, pretty easy to rent a VPS in eastern Europe these days.
A team of 3 to 5 people with moderate linux / sysop/ webdev sklls could easily it running no problem.
A spanish/latin american anarchist lemmy would be poggers also
I think it would be possible to create an imageboard frontend for Lemmy. In our docs we have a page about that.
I’m sure it wouldn’t be that hard to add anonymity, make it a little more multimedia centric, could totally work as an imageboard.
Also i with think with the way activity pub works, a lemmy instance should be able to federate with other platforms entirely, like for example if fchan takes off, or if discourse or flarum implement federations, would be possible all these forums could federate together, assuming they all complied to a certain standard – but that is probably a far way off and assumes all these different projects would want to federate with each other.
I am sure people would love Lemmychan/Lemurchan. Sounds too amusing and cute.
