    You should not.

    Multiple Lemmy instances exist so that a single entity cannot control everything that happens across the federated Lemmyverse. Each instance can make its own rules.

    As it stands there are more than enough instances, I believe with differing policies and rules. As such, you should not start a Lemmy instance.
