Hi, I’ve got my instance (the one I’m posting from) running a couple days ago. Everything seems to work, but I notice that the little content I have on my instance can only very rarely be found from other instances. I installed lemmy with the ansible method, but is there something I should still look at myself? Thanks.

    It still helps a lot because most of the load is coming from serving up the feed. Just federating the data to another server is much lighter than serving up everything via the instance’s website.

      Thanks for clarification, glad I’ve kept configs, just stopped it. Can’t say yet if I like lemmy and will stay, but I hope that’ll turn up to something great soon, so that instance will run again.
