[question] how to set up my own Lemmy server? (lemmy.ml)

First off, I'm totally new here (Reddit refugee).

But I guess we will see an endless September after July 1st.

How can we (I?) create an "onboarding" server? or in my case: a lemmy server for (people interested in) programmimg.

Let's say I have some (pick one

or all):

  • digital ocean droplet (vps)
  • herzner vps
  • k8s cluster
  • ...you get the point

How do I get my foo.bar Lemmy server running?

  • is there a docker-compose.yml or helm chart to get the services running on my droplet/cluster?
  • how do i connect my server to other lemmy servers in the fediverse?
  • are moderation tools available, or do i have to build them on my own? (are there existing repos i can join, to prevent reinventing the wheel)
  • is there documentation available for that? If not: on what repo can I make pull requests for improving the docs? (i like writing my documentation in markdown + "material for mkdocs" that generates the github/gitlab/whatever pages)

thanks in advance :thumbs-up:

Does anybody know the hardware requirements? A RaspberryPi, some small VPS with 1 cpu and 1gb ram, or 4 core vps with 16 gb ram? Is the traffic cache-able by cloudflare?

In my other comment I mentioned some specs... not sure what it's like on the larger instances, but probably not too bad.

Not sure if it can be cached by Cloudflare... probably depends on what you want to cache.

Not sure if it can be cached by Cloudflare

Every time I've turned on caching on my instance, it goes into a redirect loop and doesn't connect. I've tried searching everywhere to see if it's just something I've done wrong (which is how I found this comment) but can't find any tutorials or anything on caching with cloudflare on lemmy. I'm guessing it's just not possible.
