Congrats! How did the install go? Any major issues?
A word of caution for public services on oracle, they randomly turn off their free tier servers. And they have a new system which destroys inactive servers. So if you are not using a 5-10% average CPU, they “recover” them.
Also, Arm builds for Lemmy are broken ATM so you will be a version behind or have to use a 3rd party’s container / build them yourself :)
With portage updating packages periodically, I am sure I will be hitting the 15% CPU threshold easily 😁😁
The process was actually pretty easy. Granted, I did not yet mess with the kernel or the boot process yet.
I’m honestly surprised how easily doable the install process was. I just created a gentoo install chroot, then replaced all the directories from the main root with ones from the gentoo chroot.
I’d gladly build lemmy from source myself. I suppose it is in the spirit of gentoo!
