I’ve been in Lemmy for a month and I’m quite enjoy using the service.
However, after the mass migration on both Reddit and Twitter, I feel like the services are now significantly slower than they used to be. So I’m wondering whether I should have some kind of personal CDN/relay service for “caching” information especially medias or just create a new instace and federated to public Lemmy instance?
FYI, I have a private OpenVPN served on DO and 1L “server” that run Proxmox for existing services to my home. Should be okay to have a Nginx reverse proxy, right?

I’ve noticed that both Lemmy and Mastodon are slow as shit.

Don’t join the largest instances then. Lemmy.world is over loaded and mastodon.social is historically overloaded.
