Think about it: Lemmy provides you with a ready-made frontend and backend

all you have to do is host your own instance of it. The following could all have been implemented as Lemmy instances, had it existed at the time:

In addition, members of other instances can visit these forums without having to create new accounts, thanks to everything being federated.

Isn't that cool?
