In the settings there's a box "private instance" I can't figure out what it does though.

It would be great if it only just let logged in users view the site and not mess with the federation settings.

But that's just how it works anyway. If you want to disable registrations, just disable that instead.

I mean more that it doesn't show the local posts as anyone can still view them when they are not logged in.

Yeah, I realised that after I posted and then removed my comment.

As an aside, did you still see the comment? Or did you manage to reply before I removed it?

I'm not sure, I'm still seeing your original comment now? Maybe it's due to me replying via an admin account on my own instance of lemmy?
