When I was at The Bad Place I had a sub just for me to post on… anyone could read and comment, but only I could make a post. I used it kind of like a notebook, nothing personal like a diary. A fix I made for Gratuitous Space Battles crashing, a can opener I really liked, a commentary on when Reddit hired a pedophile and tried to cover it up, etc. Basically anything I wanted to make publicly available but didn’t want to find/join a sub for.

The question is, is something like that possible in Lemmy without running my own instance? I know it’s possible on a technical level, I’m asking about social and/or convention.

It’s empty now but it was db2_ if you’re curious

    Although you can make a personal Lemmy community as others have mentioned, I feel like Mastodon or Kbin might be better designed for that use-case?
