Hello!

I have decided self-host an instance as a little side project because I really like the concept of lemmy.

I am a scientist by profession and a naturalist basically since birth, so I have decided nature and science to be the focus of my instance.

The website is https://mander.xyz

I have enabled open federation, so if anyone wants to federate, let’s do it! The more the merrier :-)

EDIT: I decided today to rent a small VM server to host the instance, rather than hosting it from my home computer. So it should remain stable.

      About the last comment about brigading: Lemmy did end up being brigaded shortly after I sent you that message. Luckily the admins provided a simple solution: new users need to send a short message and I have to manually approve them. This helps mitigate the impact of brigades. So for the time being new registrations at mander will also require an ‘application’.
