How to configure nginx for websockets in Lemmy? (lemmy.world)

I'm playing around with my own instance of Lemmy but I keep getting a "websocket connection failed" error in my console. I'm having a really hard time understanding how to set up nginx for websockets - I'm more used to Apache and not familiar with WS at all. Is there documentation hiding somewhere that will help me set up my proxy forwarding properly?

I can't help too much as I'm not too familiar with nginx either. I used the suggested config here. Not sure if you've tried this yet. This config assumes you're setup with docker though.

In your user settings, there’s a Blocks tab. I’ve not blocked anything, but I assume you can unblock there.

I can't even log into my admin account at the moment...it just hangs. I assumed it was related to the websockets issue.
