Hi, I just deleted my Reddit account and came here for good, but I have a couple of questions.

  • Is Lemmy federated? Can I host my own instance?
  • Is this website the final release or is it still in alpha/beta stage?

Thanks very much in advance.

    I’m not a dev, so I may be mistaken on my answer to the second question:

    • The federation is still WIP, the devs are working on it, and it will be made live somwhere down the road (not too long I believe).
    • The website is mostly complete as far as functionality goes, there are still new features that are being suggested and added, but the website doesn’t feel like it’s an alpha project, it’s definitely more stable than that.

      Thank you very much! So will my account here stay up for the foreseeable future? Or is this just a dev site?

        I’m almost certain the accounts and the content will remain. I wouldn’t worry about it. :grinning face with big eyes:
