  • Hi, I’m hoping you can help me as it seems our setups are very similar and the documentation around this project is abysmal.

    Using their packaged nginx, I have successfully launched lemmy instance accessible to the public net, but I can only get it without SSL/HTTPS and it’s not federated.

    Using Nginx Proxy Manager, I can of course get a correctly SSL certified site but for the life of me I can’t forward correctly through to the Lemmy server.

    Question when you have a moment…

    • In NPM, is the Forward Hostname the machine IP (in my case, the external IP of my VPS) or is it the internal Docker-assigned IP for the Lemmy container?
    • What external hostnames do you have set in your docker-compose.yml? Is it the full typed DNS domain (Cloudlfare in your case, mine’s DDNS) or is it the raw external IP again?

    Thanks for whatever you can provide!
