Enabling HTTP or TLS Compression isn't the best idea unless you know what you are doing. Creating a tutorial for using bad practice is just coaxing you into a BREACH or some other form of CRIME.

Mostly I just wanted to make sure people who dislike updating, 'because it might break stuff' - are warned before hosting a lemmy instance. Do it on snapshot-able or reliable hardware if you are going to have people join.

"dislike updating" and hosting a lemmy instance don't go well together IMO.
