I want to self-host but don't know how to code etc so not sure where to even start

Never self-hosted Lemmy, but have self-hosted other things in the past. While you don't necessarily need to code, you need a fair amount of code-adjacent skills. If you ever want to get into self-hosting, you should have a look into (at least):
- the linux command line
- ssh
- how ports work
- VPS providers
- DNS registrars
- nginx
- docker (while you don't need it to host things, it makes your life 10x easier)

docker (while you don't need it to host things, it makes your life 10x easier)
...until you have a single extra space character hiding 20 lines into your
composefile and the whole thing falls over the next time you try to bring the containers up.Lint your code and configs every time!

VScode with "format on save" enabled. Literally never had an issue.
It's the editor that finally made me move away from vim

I've been using vscode since it was released and I never knew that was an option. Thank you!

If you are wanting to self-host outside of your home-lab and use a VPS, it is pretty simple. Ubergeek77 has compiled a docker image to easily install it all in like 5 steps. Take a look, https://github.com/ubergeek77/Lemmy-Easy-Deploy
