If I were to create a new instance of lemmy do I set up my own server in my house, or am I just creating an instance on one of the lemmy servers?

One thing to add onto what has already been said: many internet providers do not like you setting up public services via your home network because it can drive a LOT of traffic into the neighborhood and may be a security risk. You most likely would like to rent a server from a server farm somewhere.
