Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

"Less" is still not "gone" unfortunately. You do still have to be very vigilant because federation from unknown instances intentionally spreading that stuff can and will end up getting garbage on to your server's hard drive that you might not even notice.
This would be my concern.
As I understand it lemmy caches data from other instances you/your users utilize as part of federation which means it requires a fair bit of storage to operate and potentially sketchy data could be synced onto your hardware completely unbeknownst to you.
And afaik you are still legally liable for it
It depends on the country you're in I guess. In Germany, and other countries as well I guess, you're not liable for stuff others people post on your platform as long as you react to reports and actually remove that shit when it's brought to your attention. You don't have to look at your instances media folder 24/7
