    My steps were:

    1. Sign up for free Google cloud VM instance
    2. Buy a $3 domain name from Cloudflare
    3. Install with Lemmy-Easy-Deploy
    4. Change Cloudflare to “Strict”
    5. Log in

        Honestly, I don’t even know. It was in the advanced settings on Lemmy-Easy-Deploy and I missed it and spent like 2 hours troubleshooting until I saw that, lol.

        .win is a $3 domains on Cloudflare and shouldn’t have issues of being revoked (like .ml is going through and others could potentially face).

          Oh yeah I just read about cloudfare strict but I think thats only if you proxied the request through cloudfare servers , if you just point the domain to the server I dont think you need to do that.
