So stupid question - how do you shut them down? Docker compose down or stop don't seem to work.
Also, as an intermediate (spoiled Unraid) user, if I'm behind nginx proxy manager with custom ports do I just change 80 and 443 in the lemmy docker-compose? I'm doing this in a Debian VM.
What adjustments I need to do to run this locally (in my LAN) just for testing?
Any tips on how to customize the favicon for my instance? Using the docker-compose method.
To be honest, I have no idea how the public instances have favicons right now. I can tell from my own instance's HTML that Lemmy isn't sending any favicon data.
What confuses me is, the place where lemmy.world and lemmy.ml have it rendered is here, via Helmet, but setting your own icon is not documented anywhere, and I don't see anything in Helmet's code that grabs a favicon URL.
It looks like 0.18.0 will more explicitly set the favicon URL, but it doesn't look very configurable to the end user. Looks like it's hardcoded to a string in the build props, or to a default string pointing to the default svg. So it might be that all the public instances are just recompiling the entirety of lemmy-ui just to set a custom favicon.
Once 0.18.0 comes out, I will see how favicons are handled by default, and maybe provide a volume interface for replacing that default image.
A bit OT, but worth the shot: can anyone confirm whether instances deployed with this script can be found on Mastodon?
I have tried both the ansible script provided by the developers and I've adapted the docker-compose files to get things running on Docker Swarm. Everything seems to be working well, object storage, federation... except that I can not find any user or community from my instance if I search from Mastodon.
Marius Hosting published a good guide this week that I used on my nas without an issue (via docker compose).

As someone who spent hours figuring out how to deploy through Ansible, how dare you ~/s~ But seriously thank you for putting in the work to make creating an instance more attainable for people.
Hey @ubergeek77@lemmy.ubergeek77.chat, I'm trying this on an Aarm64 instance and the script says it only works on v0.17.4. Is there a plan to update to 0.18?
EDIT: the script fails for 0.17.4 here:
=> ERROR [lemmy builder 6/7] RUN cargo build --release 1183.5s
Build timer continues but CPU usage drops off. Any ideas where I've gone wrong?
Try again with the latest version of Lemmy Easy Deploy.
I am now building multiarch images for 0.18.x, and my script will now default to my multiarch images, so there is no longer a need to build it yourself :)
I'll give it a go on Monday, cheers!
