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
I plan to implement a systemd timer that truly drops data from the database that was marked as “deleted” after around 30 days. I also have a note up that says to contact me if a copy of stored data has to be requested, etc.
This is already implemented in lemmy 0.18.1 for comments and posts!
