Can you host a private lemmy instance, an instance that will not federate with any other instances?
Therefore no one from another instance can post, comment or view posts and communities from your instance. Your instance users cannot post, comment, or view communities on other instances
This is a better question for [email protected]
Doesn’t the private instance setting make it so no one can browser the posts, users and communities on the instance unless they are logged in?
Yes - in the same way that Truth Social (Trump’s platform) is a Mastodon instance that doesn’t federate with anything else
I was just about to come here and say the same thing. I just found this out today so it’s all shiny in my brain.
Yeah it’s an option in the initial setup.
sure
