Does anyone run their own Lemmy instance on a pi? How was the process of setting it up? Were there any pitfalls? How is performance?

I’m a newbie here but what would be the benefit of running an instance just for yourself?
The ability to host your own data - both for privacy, and insurance that the instance you host your account in won’t suddenly disappear.
I would also add that Lemmy is part of the fediverse, meaning it is federated. Federation means all instances “talk” to all instances (unless they defederate), so you aren’t limited only to the content on one instance (or in some cases not even Lemmy, case in point: I’m posting this from my kbin.social account).
same!
