    Ok but the Lemmy ansible install is doing all of this for you. :)

    Still, it’s a nice read and can act as a foundation for anyone who wants to do it from scratch.

      I tried the Ansible install back when 0.17.4 was the latest, and it kinda fucked my server. It changed lots of config files that I didn’t want changed. Oh, and the Lemmy install still failed.

      I learned my lesson, I’m not doing that again.
