Help me out.

I want to start a Lemmy with a focus on American and Indigenous history through a communist lens.

Among other things.

I’m willing to learn coding, tbf.

    Running a Lemmy instance is more about (IaaS or PaaS) operations knowledge/experience than coding. I wouldn’t recommend trying to run one yourself without any such background. I’d look for someone who does to partner with. If some company were providing “Lemmy as a service,” I would recommend paying them to run it, but I don’t see that appearing anytime soon.

      Interesting…

      So this is different from coding…

      I was also thinking about starting a forum with a comrade of mine that’s also making YouTube videos.

        Writing some code and checking it in to GitHub is one thing; running that code reliably 24/7 and accessible by the whole world is quite another.

          I’m willing to learn, though it will be hard, and I may need some help.
