MODERATORS
To be honest, it can be a bad idea to setup your own stuff, particularly when you don't have much knowledge in the field. So, suppose you get the server setup. You're gonna have to maintain it. If some major security vulnerability gets discovered, you'll have to figure out how to update quickly. You'll potentially have to figure out how to setup stuff like backups. There likely will be times when things mysteriously break and when you're self hosting, it's entirely up to you to fix it.
I'll hop in and second this comment. Setting up a server could be a fun learning experience but I don't recommend you do this with the intention of using this as your 'production' lemmy or leaving it open to the internet.
Don't threaten me with a good time.
