I'm almost ready with my lemmy instance server. Now what are some steps that are definitly worth doing after setup?
I was using CF initially for proxying, but noticed some weirdness with federation. I would only get updates from Beehaw, but lemmy.world and other servers' updates wouldn't come through. As soon as I dropped the proxy and restarted the server, my instance got flooded by updates. I'm really not sure where to start debugging, so I've kept it off for now
CF has some firewall feature active by default. You have to turn them off.
Checked it out. I ended up having a WAF rule blocking non-US traffic.... Given Beehaw is US based, the fact that I was mostly getting posts from this instance makes a lot of sense now. Thanks again
Glad I could help
Oh thanks for the direction. Will check it out!
