I want to set up a lemmy instance as a subreddit alternative for a community I moderate. I would be running the instance on a local machine in my home so I really want to make sure that it can’t be traced to my physical location.

I already subscribe to ExpressVPN for general use, can I just install it on the local machine, press connect, and boom be anonymous? What impact would this have on users?

    Just use Cloudflare. Of course it isn’t perfect, for perfect anonymity you need to register the domain anonymously and use an anonymous VPS, but it’s a good compromise.
