Users who have successfully gotten a Lemmy instance setup, you may want to consider helping update the installation documentation if you're able to (lemm.ee)

Quite a few people have had issues trying to get a Lemmy instance setup, and in a lot of cases it seems to be an issue with the documentation missing something or not being super clear (not blaming the devs btw, they have a LOT on their plate these days).

With the influx of users that are going to be coming to Lemmy over the next while, being able to get new instances setup is going to be critical, so anything that could improve the installation documentation, the Docker and Ansible examples, etc., which in turn will also reduce the number of installation support requests the Lemmy devs get, would be a huge help.

I'm inclined to agree.

I was able to sus out the appropriate incantations for getting it up and running using docker from info that was already in issues/pull requests, but at this point I think it's up to the maintainers to accept those pull requests to update the docs.
