I do wish you could federate/sync specific communities to your instance to make searching/subscribing easier.

You mean something that populates your server with a history of posts and comments to communities before your subscribe to them?

It's hard to say. I don't know if the admins of Lemmy.ml have been public about their issues or not. I know that Lemmy.world hasn't been having the same issues, at least from my perspective. Makes me think it's less an architectural or design problem, but rather a lack of server resources like CPU, as you suggested.

For personal Linux servers, I tend to run Debian or Ubuntu, with a pretty simple "base" setup that I just run through manually in my head.

• Setup my personal account.
• Upload my SSH keys.
• Configure the hostname (usually after something in Star Trek 🖖).
• Configure the /etc/hotss file.
• Make sure it is fully patched.
• Setup ZeroTier.
• Setup Telegraf to ship some metrics.
• Reboot.

I don't automate any of this because I don't see a whole of point in doing it.

I've had lot of issues with lemmy.ml. I just unsubscribed from everything over there since zero comments were federating over to my instance.

I love it. I had to send it to my Star Trek friends.

I'm using Linode, and their prices are publicly available.

For Mastodon, I'm using the Linode 4 GB while the Lemmy server runs on the Linode 2 GB option. Both are under the Shared CPU pricing -- not dedicated.

Thanks, I believe you are correct.

It would probably be helpful if others knew what platforms you preferred to use. 🙂

If you're in Apple's ecosystem, I'm personally fond of Reeder.

Color me shocked it wasn’t an all white/male/christian town council.

I'm sure those folks were OK with it, too.

Sendgrid has a free plan, I know, but I believe you're limited on the number of emails you can send per day.

I'm sorry, I still don't quite follow what you want. What does it mean to access the entire Fediverse?
