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:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
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.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

You can run it from an image without docker-compose but I'd recommend looking into docker-compose if you're not already familiar with it. @[email protected] has the idea right that it's just a powerful installation file and can automate your docker management process rather well if you're using it a lot.
You can build a container from an image but it's obviously more hands-on. Lemmy may have additional dependencies they include in the compose file that may not be present in the image source. but starting with something like
$ docker run --pull=always --restart=unless-stopped -d -p 80:8080 -v YOUR/PATH/TO/DATA:/data --name lemmy_backend [LEMMYREPO]:latestand configure that using proper configuration ( the links @[email protected] posted) - reference this for how to do that!
Be prepped for manual updates, though 😳
