So being a Reddit refugee, and assuming 3rd parties are getting flushed (hoping not but the outcome seems inevitable) I came here as did many others. One of the first things I noticed is underdeveloped, which is to be expected and not a knock at Lemmy at all, I’d love to be here and see it grow, and wish on all the stars it doesn’t take the same trail reddit did.
The second thing I noticed is, server needs. There’s already servers getting capped and clogged up. I would like to create / build and maintain a server for Lemmy. That’s the goal. I will be searching for ways but nothing gets done better and faster than people coming together and working together, which brings me to this post asking for guidance and help.I don’t have a ton of experience, but I have some pennies laying around and extra computer parts that I think I can do it. Even if a small portion. The learning curve alone would be awesome.
Tl;Dr what is your guidance, direction, links, help and input, for learning to build and create and instance for Lemmy. Even if it goes nowhere for me, maybe it helps someone else!
EDIT: as I start my search I realize I have a learning curve like a drunk boomerang, a lot of curve and no idea where to go, this will be fun for me / all.
