Iβm thinking about it. Do you need a domain name as well?
Yes you need a domain but that is usually quite cheap
Or use the raw IP :-D ?
You do need valid TLS and a cert canβt be directly issued on an IP.
Yep you need a domain name pointing to your instance when you run the installation of Lemmy and it will create a let's encrypt https cert for your site automatically.
