Hello Lemmy people,

I’m trying to wrap my head around where editable files ultimately ‘live’ after Ansible install to a VPS.

For example:

  1. If you want to modify a specific cell in a Postgres table using Arctype (or another SQL GUI) - would you be:
  • directly modifying the VPS instance?
  • or modifying a mirrored database on your local computer?
  1. If you setup Lemmy using a ‘1 year free trial’ from a VPS (like digital ocean)…and then want to migrate the Lemmy instance to another VPS (like Hetzner), would you be:
  • ‘pushing’ the custom Lemmy instance from your local computer to a new VPS?
  • or directly migrating the files from one VPS to the other?

I realize these are noob questions.

Thank you for your patience.

Lemmy looks really cool.
