I’m not really tech savvy but can follow directions pretty well. I am trying to create a local lemmy instance for my country and want to contribute to the community with a local server.

Does anyone know which community would I join to get more info about this? Any guides that might be helpful for me? I would appreciate the help. Thanks.

    I’m surprised no one has setup an AMI. I’m sure there are plenty of semi-technical people who wouldn’t mind spinning up instances but just don’t have the hardware to do it.

      Theres already docker images and ECS/fargate. Im debating on putting together a whole terraformed kubernetes stack for other instances to use, it would be for larger instances though as the while stack might be close to $100/mo with costs going up automatically with scale. Every time someone runs an instance and it runs on a single box with no scaling or redundancy it makes me cringe a bit.
