Fellow self-hosters of Lemmy, what is your domain name? (lm.helilot.com)

I hope this post is not too off topic. I thought that it would be nice to see the address of all the small self-hosted instances of Lemmy (1~5 users).

It's a bit longer than most but I do run a few other things under mildgrim.com but maybe I should've gone with like l.mildgrim.com instead to keep it shorter.

But a good self-explanatory URL is always a boon.

Hello Sebastian

^^ And hi to you, I don't think I caught your name? Or do you prefer Ellipse?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Ellipse will do fine. While I admire your willingness to connect you account to you real identity, I enjoy the anonymity (or pseudonymity) internet provides. Have a good rest of the day Sebastian!

The good thing is you can have both right? I can be the public me on this account and enjoy the perks of that, which include a sense of legitimacy, vulnerability and that I have something at stake when I stick my neck out. Then I can start the VPN, log on to a completely different account and be the private me. Though these days I find that less and less appealing. The ability to do so I will defend, and I don't blame anyone who wishes to be anonymous for no particular reason. But to me it's a lot of work for no, to me, tangible gain.
