Hi all, I tried hosting my own lemmy instance to take some of the load off lemmy.world, but a lot of the posts do not get synchronised to my instance. When they do, they never got more than a couple upvotes.
I get a lot of warnings in the logs that I’ve got an incoming connection not on my allowed hosts, of which I’ve put “lemmy.world” and “lemmy.ml”
Does self hosting like this actually reduce the load on lemmy.world and the fediverse? And how can I fix the issue I’m having?
As someone said don’t set allowed hosts, leave it blank. Only use the blacklist (I recommend blocking exploding heads).
What version are you running?
it was me… i said that :)
I ran the 0.18.1-rc3 branch off dockerhub
Didn’t know allowed hosts allowed all when it’s blank. Might give it another shot
