But seriously...
After spending all week installing Lemmy and trying to make it happy, I was losing my mind. I've finally got everything but pics working. I plan on troubleshooting it this weekend.
I'm being sarcastic, kind of. I wasn't sure if I was going to stay a Lemmy fan amidst the painful set up - even with Docker compose and following all of the instructions, I was struggling to self-host it.
I am still a Lemmy fan and I understand that I should do less complaining and more contributing, so I am going to write up my experience getting it running once I get the pictrs stuff working. I love the federation and want to help it thrive.
What did you install it on and with instructions did you use? I installed it on my Synology NAS, which took about 30 minutes using this guide. I was honestly impressed with how easy it was to install. https://mariushosting.com/how-to-install-lemmy-on-your-synology-nas/
Funny that you say that: my first problem was of my own making - I was using arm64 hardware and Lemmy doesn't quite support that architecture yet, so I ended up getting a Synology myself this week. It's awaiting disks and then I plan on moving Lemmy to that box.
Thanks for sharing that site - I'll make good use of it once the drives get here.
The instructions worked out, but the troubleshooting steps need to be fleshed out more. Again, probably my issues, like DNS. I learned a lot though.
I love my Synology NAS. It’s the DS920+. I’ve had it for a couple years. I upgraded the memory to 8 GB and use Portainer for a docket UI. I have 24 containers running on my NAS now, including sab, radarr, sonarr, deluge, joplin, piped/hyperpipe, youtubedl, jellyfin, pihole, and lemmy. 8gb of memory and about 45% used. Plex also runs as a native DSM package.
I've got the DS923+. It's replacing a very old but very functional QNAP that I've had for years. Alas, QTS or whatever the OS is called is slow and clunky and after using our DS920+ at work I made the decision to get a Synology.
The dev of Lemmy Easy Deploy has ARM64 builds.
This https://lemmy.world/post/1978767 was just posted a couple hours ago. It doesn't seem to cover what you're having trouble with, but it might be a good place to put what you've learned if they're open to contributions.
Thanks boss, I'll check that out. Appreciate you sharing.
I had trouble self hosting as well. Actually it was federation after the initial set up which was the problem. I gave up for now tho.
