is there an easy way for non-technical experts to set up their own Lemmy - eviltoast

I’m a nerd but not to the point I’m ready to install my own servers.

Is there a way for folks like me to set up and run a Lemmy, or is that reserved for the technical experts?

On the old site, I think one of the unspoken benefits was that anyone could create and run a sun

    With full I meant the hardware is maxed out (or bandwidth).

    I haven’t yet really figured out how it all works, complexity-wise.

      Yeah, I don’t really know for sure but I don’t think that’s a significant risk at present. IDK anything about lemmy’s architecture specifically but I would be surprised if even a large instance like world is approaching a hard limit.

      Cost will become a factor but even 1 in 1000 users donating $5 a month is probably enough to have a surplus.
