Suggestion for "relay" Lemmy instance for personal use? (lemmy.world)

I've been in Lemmy for a month and I'm quite enjoy using the service.

However, after the mass migration on both Reddit and Twitter, I feel like the services are now significantly slower than they used to be. So I'm wondering whether I should have some kind of personal CDN/relay service for "caching" information especially medias or just create a new instace and federated to public Lemmy instance?

FYI, I have a private OpenVPN served on DO and 1L "server" that run Proxmox for existing services to my home. Should be okay to have a Nginx reverse proxy, right?

I spun up an instance, I have about 30 users, the other .nz instance has about 10x that.

@itpcc@lemmy.world Find a smaller instance that suits your ethos and help build that instance's local communities and subscribe to the larger ones you want
