[Project] Lemmy EZ-Mode Docker-Compose Stack
(github.com)
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.
Beginning of January 1st 2024 this rule WILL be enforced. Posts that are not tagged will be warned and if not fixed within 24h then removed!
6 Containers for one application … And I thought the original Docker setup was annoying. Why include SSL stuff and a reverse proxy? I am pretty sure most people already have that set up.
Edit:
Just checked the readme in detail. They suggest
rm -R
’ing the Docker volumes directory to, I quote, “rm any persistent volumes”. Also manually messing with upstream data before manually creating the image again.I don’t see how this is any better than the original mess. It just adds more containers to the stack and gives very questionable advices.
An “EZ-mode” for me would be one image containing all the relevant Lemmy-specific software (lemmy, lemmy_ui pictrs and maybe even the database) and needing one volume mapped to one path in the container.
Maybe for people who only want to host lemmy and nothing else
