Jokes aside, I feel like if the dopamine hit of merely browsing Lemmy and finding posts and communities you like, and enjoying good debates does not exceed the hit for defederating everyone, then you're doing it wrong.

Few things compare to the dopamine hit of actually participating in a conversation with people

Especially in a smaller community like this

It's pretty chill

How well does it work in practice? Is that on your home LAN or a real public server instance? How much storage and growth for serving just you?

I have my instance publically available, and been using Lemmy through it since. I have a couple of local communities (non-private) that I hope people start using, but hard being discovered, it seems.

Started out with 1.6G usage day one, and since then I have grown to 1.96G.

Thanks, looks to be really light on resources.
