I mean how else? I just started a virtual private server up (chose hetzner for this), secured it as best I can, setup cloudflare for it to proxy the IP for security through obscurity, and used the lemmy easy deploy script by ubergeek77 on GitHub; If you want a more detailed guide that will take more time

I use the lemmy-easy-deploy script on a hetzner vps - they have servers in ashburn which is the location im using - cant recommend lemmy easy deploy enough - here is a link: https://github.com/ubergeek77/Lemmy-Easy-Deploy

The best balance is to run your own instance like I do

Were they brown? Seems like that wouldn’t happen in Texas to a little white boy
