# Lemmy {#module-services-lemmy}
Lemmy is a federated alternative to reddit in rust.
## Quickstart {#module-services-lemmy-quickstart}
the minimum to start lemmy is
```nix
{
services.lemmy = {
enable = true;
settings = {
hostname = "lemmy.union.rocks";
database.createLocally = true;
};
caddy.enable = true;
};
}
```
this will start the backend on port 8536 and the frontend on port 1234.
It will expose your instance with a caddy reverse proxy to the hostname you've provided.
Postgres will be initialized on that same instance automatically.
## Usage {#module-services-lemmy-usage}
On first connection you will be asked to define an admin user.
## Missing {#module-services-lemmy-missing}
- Exposing with nginx is not implemented yet.
- This has been tested using a local database with a unix socket connection. Using different database settings will likely require modifications
