Lemmy is like a public library of the internet: it's one of the few places where you can exist without the expectation of paying either through watching ads or through direct payments (lemmy.ml)

But it’s not a hard requirement unless you expect to have lots of local communities posting pictures.

Doesn't lemmy sync posts, comments, and pictures with other instances? I remember after a CP attack some instances manually turned it off in the code to avoid troubles, and also had to clear their storage.

It absolutely does. Think of lemmy like of email – your mail server has all the email you received.
