[Solved] How can i host my own lemmy instance just for myself on a single raspberry pi 3b+?

I had a hard time with this and I could not get lemmy easy deploy to work. I was finally able to install on a Pi 4 with ansible using ubergeek77’s images. It was difficult because of the lack of documentation.

They have an ansible script in the docs to set up your own instance. It won’t work 100% with debian 12 but you can get around it by reading the docs for the commands that fail. I have no idea how ansible works but it’s pretty easy to follow the instructions.

You do have to get a domain first though so pick something your gonna like because you can’t change it later.

I can always get a different domain and host it again from the start, but i got one now

Use Lemmy-easy-deploy on a Linux environment.
