This is good to know. I have thought about self hosting my own instance for the fun of it, and to learn how it works, but it looks like the experience won't be as complete if I like to browse through threads from communities I'm not subscribed to (like I would have browsed through All on reddit).
I'm in the same boat. Having a small instance for me and my friends might create an echo chamber, at least initially. My current strategy is to browse all on kbin and sdf's Lemmy and find interesting communities to subscribe to.
This does cause an issue of duplicate communities though -- pawb.social has tech but so do other Lemmy instances. I have not found a good way to group them and de-dup them yet.
