[SOLVED] Changing instance URL (without federation) (lemmy.ml)

Hello, all!

I've just successfully installed a personal lemmy instance, but I did it under a temporary hostname. From what I've read in the docs, you can't change the domain name after you've started federating, but since I'm not enabling federation, I think I'm free to do it, but how do I go about actually changing the hostname? Is there a guide somewhere?

Thank you

Just found some documentation about changing the domain name: https://join-lemmy.org/docs/en/administration/backup_and_restore.html?highlight=url#changing-your-domain-name

I'll leave this here if anyone else needs it
