Hi, I wanted to host a personal Lemmy instance online (for just myself, I don’t think I can take the upkeep for other users - please let me know if this is not possible) and wanted to understand how to “attach” a CDN service to it.
The idea behind doing this is that I’m in the US but I’m looking to host a server in Europe. I am looking into Cloudflare’s free CDN service, but it would be great if someone could point me towards how I can configure this setup to speed up the loading time for my Lemmy instance (which is going to be far away from me, geographically).
I would also like to know about your setups and how you have hosted Lemmy.
Thanks!
If Cloudflare just needed the address, they could query the domain name I would provide them during the setup process (which they do, in order to set up the CDN). Why their DNS servers instead of my own?
My apologies, I think I’m missing a crucial point here which is why I’m asking the same question multiple times. Thanks so much for your help!
