Actually all the instances were from lemmy.world. lemmy.world just removed some recently for some reason (unknown to me) and I havent removed them from my list yet. I normally just sync the lists every now and again. I dont have any personal views, i just pull the list from lemmy.world and let them decide. If there is a difference it was because eith er my list is slightly out of date by a few days, or the bot script found something ans was run at a different time than they ran it. Essentially I dont host any content so there isnt much to moderate, thus my views are largely irrelevant.

I run a lemmy server and its actually very hard to encourage people to sign up and use the server as they have to resubscribe to their communities manually or with a script and people just dont want to do it for basically very little gain for themselves individually even if when hundreds of people do it collectively it helps reduce load on popular servers. Its kind of like the climate change issue. One person doing it on their own doesnt change much and incurs a lot of work so why bother? Even if it is true that 1000 people moving would make a measurable difference.

Https://lemmy.myserv.one if you do want to join, however.

If anyone wants to help spread the load I would appreciate people helping me with my instance that is small still and needs testing and help to grow. Its https://lemmy.myserv.one - will be updated to 0.18.1 when it releases soon.

You font make any communities and clear the database of cached content thats no longer needed after reasonable amount of time (as its hosted on the other instances the data came from) eg: PGPASSWORD=password psql --dbname=database --username=username --command="DELETE FROM activity WHERE published < NOW() - INTERVAL '7 days';"

Does stop top month or top year since you dont have data going that far back. Obviously if you keep it then you need more disk space, memory and so on and so on.

Yes but only if you have a lot of users eventually. So your server can serve up hundreds of requests from several different federated servers (eg: maybe some content from beehaw, other content from lemmy.world) instead of 1 server (maybe lemmy.world) having to serve that same content 100 times from all over the place.

If its only you and no other users, then not.
