Do any of you know if there are ressources out there explaining how to host an instance of Lemmy? I’m curious about the servers, bandwidth and storage required. Also, does every instance hosts every other instance in it too? Thank you for any help!

    Your best bet is https://lemmy.ml/c/selfhost but your options are either self host at home or a VPS. Hetzner are a decent VPS provider, some people are using them with 4gb ram/60gb space which is about £6 a month. I’m going to go for 8gb RAM/80gb space.

    You can either use Ansible, Docker, Yunohost or do it all manually.
