Instructions for running your own lemmy instance.

For the moment, lemmy.ml is using an explicit allowlist for instances we federate with. If you currently run an instance, and would like to be added to join.lemmy.ml:

  • Let us know either on !lemmy_instances, or commenting here.
  • We’ll add you to our allowlist.
  • Add this block to your server’s lemmy.hjson config (for open federation):
federation: {
  enabled: true
  tls_enabled: true
  # allowed_instances: lemmy.ml,other_instance.tld,... uncomment this to use an allowlist
}
  • Type !announcements@lemmy.ml into your server’s search box, and subscribe to it to connect the two instances.

On your Lemmy instance, hit the Search icon, then post a full direct user of a community/user you want to look at (https://lemmy.ml/c/announcements), or a post you want to comment on (https://lemmy.ml/post/89740). Look in your logs and you should see some activity.

If you want to get updates for a Lemmy community, you have to subscribe to it.
