Hey folks, the title says it all… I am on the brink to open my own Lemmy instance and I’m looking for a name. I already own the following unused domains:

-lemmy.pw -voom.social -zeebo.social

Maybe you can even suggest a completely different name? The instance will be a general one.

Thanks!

    Regarding the downvote:
    Roughled some feathers from the looks of it, good

    While looking at various TLDs, these kinda’ wrote themselves… for better or worse:-)

    lemmy.tell.the.world

    lemmy.is.life

    your.lemmy.host

    lemmy.is.fun : I do like this one…

      Yeah I don’t think this is feasible.

      You’d have to own is.world, is.fun, is.life, the.world

      Those domain names are almost certainly already taken, and the owners will probably charge quite a lot to buy it

      I recently setup one up and it wasn’t difficult.

      Biggest issue for me was user error where I didn’t think about needing an smtp service to send emails. So just got a free one that allows 300/day

        Where are you hosting it and what’s the cost? I’d spin one up if it wasn’t too expensive.

          Self host on an old desktop I turned into a headless Linux server. So no cost unless you factor in wattage but my servers already running a number of other applications. Oh and I guess my domain but I was also using that already.

            Ah nice. I have an Unraid server but thus far have all the apps and shit I run accessible via LAN/VPN only. I have pfsense and know how to mess with haproxy a little to reverse proxy things through, but I’m not sure how secure that is or if that opens the attack surface up drastically, so I haven’t really dabbled in allowing external access to my server. Might look into it.

              Yeah I use the free plan of cloud flare to make the things I need accessible away from home

                That the secure tunnel thing I keep hearing about?

                Do you use that for lemmy as well, as in your instance is private?

                  It’s more than that. My instance is public. Though not currently running. Cloudflare lets you open your private network to the public without exposing your IP or opening ports.
