I'm nearly of a mind to start a couple of Lemmy instances and front them with a load balancer--I have the resources and technical ability to build a Lemmy instance for scale--but I have zero interest in moderating the thing. I don't want to deal with the headache of everything that goes along with that, and don't want any responsibility for the users or content.

Would anyone be interested in a 'Lemmy Infra as-a-Service,' where I keep things running but hand off the management keys to you?

 

Whereas I might’ve been less generous with upvotes on Reddit, I think it’s important in these early formative stages to let others know that I appreciate their contributions. I hope it encourages growth and activity!

 

The /r/earthporn subreddit was one of the top 5 subs I was desperately going to miss, thank you so much for making this!!

 

I was riding my bike a few weeks ago and came across this couple parked in their old MG, watching the sun set. They allowed me to take a few pictures of them. Wish I hadn't cut off the back part of the car in the composition, but alas.

(Also I know this is my 3rd upload in the past couple of days, but I'm trying to help get this community going!)

That's...not how things work. Everyone has their philosophical opinions so I won't attempt to argue the point, but if you want to handle scale and distribution, you're going to have to start thinking differently, otherwise you're going to fail when load starts to really increase.

You could configure something like a Cloudflare worker to throw up a page directing users elsewhere whenever healthchecks failed.
