Hey. I really like the idea of the fediverse and Lemmy and would want to know as a beginner/not so experienced regarding selfhosting what would be the best way to get started? I saw there are vps options, but don’t know of I’m looking in the right direction.
Make sure you use a Debian base OS, as the playbook uses aptitude to install the dependencies. Also, you can’t use anything over Debian 11, as the way the apt repositories and gpg keys are added, and the pip packages are installed don’t work with the newer OS’.
I found out the hard way lol
