How difficult is it to apply these updates?
I was thinking of setting up a personal Lemmy instance, but the idea of getting it all set up and working, and then an update breaking things and my not having the advanced skill to fix it, worries me >.<
We need something more simple compatible with Lemmy for hobbyists and for those who don't want to be all day setting up things every time.
I also was thinking about my own personal instance, because I want to see everything federated and then choose what I don't want to see, but everybody's tutorial is different.
Man, I miss the good ol' times with "upload via FTP, run the "install.ext" file in a browser, setup database credentials and then you have it".
Fediverse needs single-user applications.
There are some in development! Gotosocial is very very single user friendly and easy to setup and so is writefreely. I do hope in time there is a "lemmy lite" version that has local communities disabled completely and more local user friendly settings. It likely will in time, but we will see.
