Good read, gives me a lot of hope for this project.
I look forward to an exciting future with all of you.
(Also- hopefully this wasn’t posted already)

This was written by the Lemmy devs.
I wish it was easier to setup an instance and manage it
Agreed, it’s an absolute nightmare to get up and running.
I messed with it for a few hours later.
Did you ever get it up. I tried both the docker and vps methods on both Debian and Ubuntu. Never could get it to connect.
Part of it is some of my unfamiliarity with some of the tools and their purpose (namely redis and rabbitmq). But all I got was 500 errors and when looking at service logs, everything was clean.
I tried both, with fresh vms.
No dice. Lemmy has been working good, so, I stuck with it.
I wanna mess around and see if I can build a blazer front end for it. With web assembly
Mentioned up above, but there is a pull request that will make docker deployment much easier. It will move all setup into env variables and use precompiled images.
If you are talking about these, I believe i ran through them as well. But honestly I was redeploying my VPS and ansible configs so quick I could have messed something up.
I may give it another go as well.

Jerry of infosec.exchange was saying there were some bigger issues with the code as well.

Yeah 143. It will also replace caddy with nginx, which on its own should be an improvement.
I don’t know what’s up with fedia, as far as I know his system is massive, like many times the resources of kbin.social.
