Suggestion for "relay" Lemmy instance for personal use? (lemmy.world)

I've been in Lemmy for a month and I'm quite enjoy using the service.

However, after the mass migration on both Reddit and Twitter, I feel like the services are now significantly slower than they used to be. So I'm wondering whether I should have some kind of personal CDN/relay service for "caching" information especially medias or just create a new instace and federated to public Lemmy instance?

FYI, I have a private OpenVPN served on DO and 1L "server" that run Proxmox for existing services to my home. Should be okay to have a Nginx reverse proxy, right?

You thought I was talking about cryptocurrencies? Really? You read that, saw crypto, public/private keys, signing data, and thought "He's talking about cryptocurrencies, and surely not cryptography!" ??

Seriously? Wow... I sincerely hope you're not hosting anything public, and if you do, consider shutting it down and step away from the server until you have a bit more technical insight.

After you explained it a bit further in another comment it was pretty obvious you didn't mean cryrocurrencies. I really did latch onto "crypto" as cryptocurrency, unfortunately the case for a lot of people.
