Does anyone run their own Lemmy instance on a pi? How was the process of setting it up? Were there any pitfalls? How is performance?

Not yet, but I’m planning to. And I don’t think there will be any “pitfalls” at all other than your microsd dying in a couple of months rather than years due to it getting hammered constantly by API requests, etc.
You could plug in a USB SSD or HDD and make sure the DB and other regularly written data goes there. That would pretty much remove the problem.
I would wonder how well it would perform. The limited memory and cpu power surely would make database access not great under even moderate load.
