          Ye I wanted to try and see how it works, running on a spare Rpi4

          this is my display name - |💀| in my instance

            that’s interesting, are you using ansible/docker (is docker available for rpi?) to run lemmy like what monyet.cc does?

              I’m using docker, don’t see why ansible wouldn’t work either. You have to install official docker separately into Raspbian.

              Yunohost is another option but I think they are using older Lemmy version

                thanks for letting me know. I looked on lemmy’s docker hub page, but the latest arm build I could find is one of 0.17.3, does this mean you compiled lemmy from source on your rpi4?

                  I ended up with this. Quick summary what I did

                  • SSD boot setup
                  • Install official docker / docker compose
                  • Run Lemmy-Easy-Deploy
                  • sort out TLS issue with my other reverse proxy
                  • sort out cloudflare API

                  Browse all the ‘communities’ to get the feeds, otherwise it wouldn’t pull the contents over

                    okay, thank you. how is lemmy’s memory usage so far?

                    also, forgive me for being so curious, have you tried hosting any other fediverse-related software?

                    I’ve been following the epicyon project, but wow, the install instructions is really of the “do everything manually” type…so it is hard to get enough motivation to follow them through.
