Does anyone run their own Lemmy instance on a pi? How was the process of setting it up? Were there any pitfalls? How is performance?
[Edit]
So a lot of testing around. Compiling from scratch, etc, etc...
So far i have tried
installing lemmy using rootless docker (on 0.17.3)
compiling the image 0.18 docker image as arm
rootless docker did not work well for me. lots of systemd issues and i gave up after running into a lot of issues.
I tried rootless docker for security reasons. minimal permissions, etc.
When trying to compile the latest lemmy image in arm, i ran into issues with muslrust not having an arm version. It might be worth investigating rewriting the docker file from 0.17.3 to work with 0.18.0 but i haven't investigated that fully yet!
I tried compiling the latest image because i wanted to be able to use the latest features
At the moment, I'm trying to set lemmy to run under bare metal. Im currently attempting to compile lemmy under arm. If that works, i'll start setting up .service files to start up lemmy and pictrs.
