I would love to run an instance but I am too stupid to set one up LOL
lemmy needs a 'one click' app template solution for use with portainer or Unraid. Unraid has a huge hobbyist install base that could explode federation and allow quick load balancing for the upcoming influx of users.
But I also don't know enough about lemmy at this point to know whether this may help or hurt the platform.
I’m an Unraid user and I’m a noob at building containers. But I don’t think it’s as easy as a one click solution unless something major changes in the Lemmy code. Right now it’s a 2-3 container solution IIRC - database, Lemmy, and Lemmy-UI (the web frontend).
The ansible install instructions surprised me at how simple they were. Edit a few (2-3) config files and run a script, wait like 30 seconds and your instance is ready.
