I'm now pondering what it would be like to run my own micro instance for fediverse content.

Whatever it is, it has to be as feature rich and as economical to run as possible.

The two best choices I can think of are Lemmy and Plemora.

Please share your insights.

@trevdev i asked a similar question a few days ago, and i've been exploring Friendica as an option. mostly because it seems like others have done this on my hosting service (dreamhost), and it seems fairly lightweight.

ymmv

@elmiko ahhhh PHP, that makes a lot of sense actually. I tried it something like 8 years ago and it didn't feel as polished but I can't remember why. I'll have a look.

I am also on Dreamhost.

@trevdev yeah, my php days are well behind me, but i'm willing to give it a test drive.
@elmiko Not to offload that work onto you, but if you had follow-up feedback on it, I would like to hear it. I will remind myself to ask you
