I’m not really tech savvy but can follow directions pretty well. I am trying to create a local lemmy instance for my country and want to contribute to the community with a local server.

Does anyone know which community would I join to get more info about this? Any guides that might be helpful for me? I would appreciate the help. Thanks.

    Thanks for replying. Sorry it took so long to reply.

    Most of my “linux” skills are youtube video based. I’m currently running a proxmox box that houses my OpenWRT, adguard, tailscale Home assistant and a Win11 VM for backing up to backblaze. I also have a Synology box.

    Like I said, most of my ‘skills’ are following well documented youtube videos and guides.

    I currently own lemmy.tw. I’m located in Taipei and was going to run it out of my proxmox or a spare Intel i3 serverI have laying around. My fear is that since my boxes are on the same network, I might be putting myself at risk. I could setup a VLAN to segment it out of my network. I just don’t want to lose all my data because of some lemmy bug and/or forgetting to update the kernals or something.

    I don’t mind paying for a monthly subscription for hosting if that means its safer.

    Thanks for the help.
