It is kinda like r/selfhosted that stays on reddit even though it is turning to shit when the communities are about being able to manage a server and a shit ton of atorage
Its really funny because lemmy is one of the most rewarding things to selfhost
I am waiting for a better server before trying it, but I think I will probably keep this one
FWIW, it doesn’t need much. I’ve been running since June 2023 on a VM with 12 gigs of ram, like three cores, and a 1tb ssd (previously I was hosting the DB on my unraid server, but the performance was absolutely horrendous). When i started it i had less RAM, i think as time as gone on its started requiring a bit more (maybe now because of the db migration)
It’s unfortunate that the active c/datahoarder is on lemmy.ml, because it always derails the conversation into the tankie question. But it’s honestly on brand for there to be multiple c/datahoarder communities on Lemmy. You know, for backup and redundancy purposes 😏
Shout out to @[email protected] for getting some activity going on [email protected].
If we were to start fresh, I feel like [email protected] would be the most appropriate.

@[email protected] Thoughts on hosting a datahoarder community on your instance?
The moderator of [email protected] (@[email protected], likely u/-Archivist) hasn’t been active in two years. Would the admins be open to appointing a new moderator or redirecting to a community on another instance? Tagging admin @[email protected].
The moderator of [email protected] (@[email protected]) is active. Thoughts on moving the community to dbzer0?
Tagging recent posters in the above communities for their thoughts: @[email protected], @[email protected], @[email protected], @[email protected], @[email protected], @[email protected], @[email protected].
Thoughts on moving the community to dbzero? I think moving away from .ml might be a better experience for new users, and moving away from .world (largest instance, still on 19.3) would strengthen the fediverse as a whole.
I think the idea to move away from .ml is a fantastic idea, but going to dbzer0 might be swinging too far the other way, I may be wrong on this point but they seem to have a love of anarchy. I propose moving to an instance that does not bring forth a massive ideology push, in this case I think lemm.ee is good place to restart this community, but that is just my two cents.
Little late, but better late than never lmao
I agree that moving it away from .ml is a good idea, keeping it off .world is a good idea too because .world is getting a little big for its britches lmao
Though I don’t think DB0 is all that bad, they also host c/piracy, which while not exclusive to each other do complement each other IMHO
Though .ee is fine too ig, I would also suggest Lemmy.sdf.org, but I have noticed growing concern that it might be abandoned
We use [email protected] to assign new moderators. But redirecting the community to a different instance sounds wrong, because it is by far the biggest datahoarder community with 7k subscribers (compared to 360 on .world).
