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.
