Federation is now enabled on https://lemmy.ml!

Instructions for running your own lemmy instance.

For the moment, lemmy.ml is using an explicit allowlist for instances we federate with. If you currently run an instance, and would like to be added to join.lemmy.ml:

  • Let us know either on !lemmy_instances, or commenting here.
  • We’ll add you to our allowlist.
  • Add this block to your server’s lemmy.hjson config:
federation: {
  enabled: true
  tls_enabled: true
  allowed_instances: lemmy.ml,other_instance.tld,...
}
  • Type !announcements@lemmy.ml into your server’s search box, and subscribe to it to connect the two instances.

Does Lemmy federate with any other software at this time?
