I am curious about hosting my own lemmy/mastodon server (lemmy.ml)

My main concerns is illegal content being posted, shared. Any advice?

I am probably not going to do it due to this, so don't spend too much time replying 😊

IMO Lemmy/PieFed is safer to run because the community mods will delete anything illegal, which will delete it for you, too. About 5 instances host 95% of communities worth joining so it's easy for us to coordinate defense.

Mastodon is thousands of instances and more wild west. Bad stuff can come from anywhere.
