Selfhosted

A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

I'd like to self-host my own Lemmy instance. My environment is comprised of a Fedora VM on a separate VLAN running in Proxmox. That VM runs docker, and exposes all my services to Cloudflare using a treafik reverse proxy.

I have found some posts in my googlings of folks that were able to get Lemmy to work inside Traefik. I have tried their docker-compose files, and ultimately came up short.

My question, has anyone been able to get this working? If so, how?

This is my ingressroute for lemmy:

It seems to work correctly. Given that you’re not using kubernetes, you’ll need to do some translation work.

Can you federate with kbin instances? The communities get stuck at subscribe pending for me.

That's the only thing not working and I assume I'm missing a proxy rule.

It does appear to work for me.

I had the same issue, upgrading to 0.18.1 and using the revised nginx.conf from lemmy-ansible fixed the issue.

Figured it out. I also had to add the PUT, DELETE, PATCH and CONNECT rules, only POST doesn't work for kbin apparently.
