Good advice or also just host your own instance will be a great way and its very simple to do that I feel anyone with some technical knowledge can do it by using Yunohost.
We got almost 20,000 instances I don't think we need to push people to self hosting unless that's something they specifically enjoy.
No its 1376 instances and about 28000+ communities I believe.

Thanks for correcting me. I must have gotten confused between the Instances and communities.
My steps were:
What is a $3 domain? I really wanted to buy one like that cheap. Why change cloudfare to strict?
Honestly, I don’t even know. It was in the advanced settings on Lemmy-Easy-Deploy and I missed it and spent like 2 hours troubleshooting until I saw that, lol.
.win is a $3 domains on Cloudflare and shouldn’t have issues of being revoked (like .ml is going through and others could potentially face).
Oh yeah I just read about cloudfare strict but I think thats only if you proxied the request through cloudfare servers , if you just point the domain to the server I dont think you need to do that.
I bought the domain through Cloudflare and when setting the CNAME and A records it automatically proxied them so I didn’t even think about it at the time.
Yeah that is how it usually works. Well thank you for the info its been really helpful
wasn't yunohost using an older version of Lemmy?
Its not always on the latest but its being really stable for me. I think they tested really throughly so thats why the updates are delayed but it just works.
Thanks for this! I just picked up a RPi4 and have been kicking it around trying to host a few applications and I'm just about to re-flash and start fresh. I'll give Yunohost a shot tonight!
