Hey guys,

Do you think it makes sense to create a service which allows users to spawn and host their own instances of Lemmy?

I understand that Lemmy is about distributed communities and Fediverse, but I am also thinking that we could increase adoption if we allow non tech-savvy communities to join in.

What are your thoughts?

Why are you so salty?

Good questions you are asking. If I were to think out loud, I’d say this would require some kind of global moderation.

Hmm. I'm not sure what the advantage would be over just creating communities on existing instances, then, if someone else is still going to be the admin.

One real-life community may need several Lemmy communities as per each topic.

Then make several lemmy communities on an existing instance.
