If your post meets the following criteria, it's welcome here!

  1. Open-ended question

  3. Not regarding using or support for Lemmy: context, see the list of support communities and tools for finding communities below
  4. Not ad nauseam inducing: please make sure it is a question that would be new to most members

Can you host a private lemmy instance, an instance that will not federate with any other instances?

Therefore no one from another instance can post, comment or view posts and communities from your instance. Your instance users cannot post, comment, or view communities on other instances

Yes - in the same way that Truth Social (Trump's platform) is a Mastodon instance that doesn't federate with anything else

I was just about to come here and say the same thing. I just found this out today so it's all shiny in my brain.
