Hey folks, the title says it all… I am on the brink to open my own Lemmy instance and I’m looking for a name. I already own the following unused domains:
-lemmy.pw -voom.social -zeebo.social
Maybe you can even suggest a completely different name? The instance will be a general one.
Thanks!
Where are you hosting it and what’s the cost? I’d spin one up if it wasn’t too expensive.

Ah nice. I have an Unraid server but thus far have all the apps and shit I run accessible via LAN/VPN only. I have pfsense and know how to mess with haproxy a little to reverse proxy things through, but I’m not sure how secure that is or if that opens the attack surface up drastically, so I haven’t really dabbled in allowing external access to my server. Might look into it.

That the secure tunnel thing I keep hearing about?
Do you use that for lemmy as well, as in your instance is private?

Thanks, I’ll have to educate myself on it. Appreciate your time.
I started one on Linode, a 2gb shared vps. Seems to be running fine so far. Cost per month is $12.
