How would we go about asking say, Cpanel / Softaculous to have a one click install for lemmy? It’s currently possible with many server applications and it would be awesome to have lemmy on that list

I hear you. I just yesterday tried the docker apporach and gave up after the fourth error occurred during startup. I’ll watch this thread and hope for a simpler solutionfor a mere mortal to follow. (Edited)

The docker instructions are a hot pile of garbage, unfortunately. The referenced docker compose file, for example, is for installing via Ansible I think. There’s another Docker Compose file somewhere in the GitHub which is formatted for regular installation.

FYI here’s a link to the other compose file I was talking about: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/blob/main/docker/docker-compose.yml
