Anyone want to take over lemmy.ca? (self.main)

Hi all,

I'm going to be taking on a rather large change of life in the very near future, and I'm having to dump a bunch of responsibilities and hobby-type things.

This lemmy instance falls in to that category. I would love to see someone with the technical know-how volunteer to pick up the domain, this database, and host this somewhere, keeping continuity going.

Anyone interested?

Thanks!

I could possibly do that. could you tell me some details what you're using to host it currently? you can pm me if that's easier too.

It's just a vhost on a dedicated server that I have for a bunch of things. Requires rust and postgresql - and I'm not sure how light of a server would handle it. The lemmy processes are taking up over 5GB RAM, but that's mostly due to pict-rs, and I'm not sure if it's just being lazy with cleaning itself up or not. (if I restart pict-rs it's very light)

The DB size is about 566MB presently.

Anything other particulars you wanted to know about presently?

just out of curiosity, which installation method do you use (docker/ansible/scratch)?

also, approx how much moderation do you do?

I'll try and get Lemmy running in the next week or so, just to see how that goes, and to make sure the server has enough horsepower.

My setup is from scratch. Most of my moderation is spam removal: https://lemmy.ca/modlog
