I want to self host my own lemmy instance for personal use. I have seen there Github page and it is really easy to set up but I have some questions?
- How will I be able to federate with other instances?
- Will I be able to interact with communities from other instances?
- What type of hardware will be required to self host?
- And finally is it worth to run our own instance?

- You can subscribe to any community or add the instance to the Allowed Instances
- Yes you can search the communities through your search e.g. !fediverse@lemmy.world an subscribe to it
- My Instance is running on Hetzner I am using the CX21 (2 Cores, 4GB RAM, 40GB Disk Space) and its running really good (Its just me on this instance for now)
- definitely yes 😁
- There is option in the admin panel with whom to federate and whom to block.
- Yes, just like I do now.
- Depends on the size, it can very well run on 1CPU 1Mem
- Single instance of the above size does not go over 5$, so for me it’s worth.
