I’ve been toying with the idea of creating a dog training community, but I don’t know where to put it! How do you pick? The one thing I can’t do is host it myself 😞
Bonus question - what’s the official terminology? Ex. Lemmy.world is a ______. [email protected] is a ______.
I would prefer to put it on a more relevant place, but animals.zoo doesn’t exist yet 😜
domain name, the nomenclature for [email protected] is multipurpose (email/intra-instance mag addresssing)
an instance is software running on a server, being addressed at a location like whatever.com
i use amazon because its familiar, and has very mature tooling/services. it is a bit pricier… ~30%.
register a domain ‘whatever.com’ and then you can run any host you want lemmy.whatever.com, yourmom.whatever.com, etc.
Solid answer to a different question 😉
