I’d be really keen to host a lemmy instance but just wondering with GDPR and everything, if there is anything else to consider outside of the technical setup and provisioning of hardware?
Lemmy is storing users data so is there any requirement to do anything GDPR wise?
Hope this is the right place for this - But seen a lot of posts interested in hosting their own lemmy instance, and this is an extension of that
IANAL but no, as instances do not share “personal data”. There is a misconception that GDPR deletion requests apply to all data created by a user, but to my understanding it only applies to “personal data” as defined here: https://commission.europa.eu/law/law-topic/data-protection/reform/what-personal-data_en
