    Never self-hosted Lemmy, but have self-hosted other things in the past. While you don’t necessarily need to code, you need a fair amount of code-adjacent skills. If you ever want to get into self-hosting, you should have a look into (at least):

    • the linux command line
    • ssh
    • how ports work
    • VPS providers
    • DNS registrars
    • nginx
    • docker (while you don’t need it to host things, it makes your life 10x easier)
