I second this request. Your theme looks great and I’d love to include it in my instance.

When did you submit your request? I sent mine on the 22nd and they still haven’t replied. I’m thinking of reporting them to my country’s privacy authority if they don’t comply before 22/07.
Only if you post on intances federated with threads, I think
I’d say the suggested practice is going with smaller instances (i.e. anything that isn’t lemmy.ml or even worse lemmy.world). But sure, if you want to spin up a custom instance that would be even better. You’d have the advantage of being able to customize your experience a lot more (changing themes, editing the code to fix stuff you don’t like, managing your own emojis…)
I’d say around 10€ a month. My instance pays around that (maybe a little more, can’t remember) and we have over 100 users. It’s really not that expensive.
You become a mega janny. You have to draft server wide rules, appoint mods and make sure they don’t screw up by letting banned content through. Depending on your country’s laws and where your instance is hosted, you might risk hosting illegal stuff for which you as an admin would be liable.
Others have already replied to 4. and 5. so I’m not going to make this wall of text any longer.
Fun fact: while not being exactly like what karma was on Reddit, Lemmy does store the total count of upvotes-downvotes your account has received. You probably can’t see it because it isn’t shown by the frontend (the website you see), but the data is indeed there.
Ansible guide. I didn’t follow this one myself but the guy who set up my instance said it was pretty easy

…or join a smaller instance.
Same, since I updated my instance to 0.18 Jerboa doesn’t work and instantly crashes.
Upvoting this post from Connect for Lemmy. Actually I think I still prefer Jerboa. Unfortunately it has stopped working since I updated my instance to 0.18 so this will have to do for now.
Oh I wasn’t aware of this. Very tempting. Now I lowkey wish they miss the deadline on one of the six accounts I requested the data for, so I can do some European style trolling.
This. Defed is not the magic weapon that will solve all your problems. Captcha and email filters should be on by default though.
That’s what I’ve blocked yeah. Though you can’t really have any confirmation (the “software” and “version” fields will remain blank) because they haven’t even enabled federation yet.
