      What on earth is your instance name?

        Good question!

        I essentially self-host my own pyfedi instance ( pyfedi is to piefed.social as lemmy is to aussie.zone ) - and thanks to srv.us I do it for free! (Well, I have my own internet connection that’s subsidized and run the software on an old spare laptop at home, so still free overall, but srv.us just provides the permanent domain name.)

        Alas, the price of not paying for a persistent and unchanging domain name is not being able to choose the domain name.

          Interesting. I very briefly ran a test Lemmy instance off a raspberry pi I had laying around, but shut it down because I was worried about having an open port on my network and exposing my IP to the world. Then I tried to run an actual Lemmy instance on a proper VPS and ironically had more issues with that than running it at home!
