    Also, use cloudflare and …

    I was using CF initially for proxying, but noticed some weirdness with federation***. I would only get updates from Beehaw, but lemmy.world and other servers’ updates wouldn’t come through. As soon as I dropped the proxy and restarted the server, my instance got flooded by updates. I’m really not sure where to start debugging, so I’ve kept it off for now
