Hello! I have been struggling through a few tutorials on getting a lemmy instance to work correctly when setup with Docker. I have it mostly done, but there are various issues each time that I do not have the knowledge to properly correct. I am familiar with Docker, and already have an Oracle VPS set up on ARM64 Ubuntu. I already have portainer and an NGINX proxy set up and working okay. I have an existing lemmy instance "running" but not quite working. My best guess here would be to have someone assist with setting up the docker-compose to work with current updates/settings, as well as the config.hjson.

TIA, and I cant wait to have my own entry into the fediverse working right!

hey @Jattatak, you seem to be the only other person I can find who is facing similar troubles to myself when trying to set up a lemmy instance. I've redone my docker-compose, nginx.conf, and lemmy.hjson to be exactly the same as yours (with some changes in the password / domain name). I'm also running an nginx proxy manager container.

However, it seems I'm still having the same problem of being able to see post content but not comments in other instances. I have the added problem of when trying to post a comment on my instance, the form freezes until I refresh the page. The comment does actually get posted.

I've also made sure the 'lemmyinternal' network is not isolated. I wonder did you manage to do anything to trouble shoot this issue? are there any ports I need to open on my firewall beyond 80, 443?

So far I've only needed 80 and 443 opened. Have any error messages in your containers?
