How is everyone installing Lemmy?
I have tried installing it with docker on Ubuntu 20.04 and 22.04 LTS but cannot seem to get it working. The build keeps erroring out with docker errors.

I've been having trouble understanding how the docker-compose thing works, and the whole... impermanence of docker containers. Got any tutorials you'd recommend? Note I'm on Windows.
Are you planning to host it on a Windows machine?
If you don't have experience with docker, don't jump straight to docker compose. Start simpler.
If you want to have data persist after a container is killed, have a look at the -v option of "docker run". It allows you to mount a volume.
Yes, I'd be hosting it through Docker Desktop on my Windows server.
Most programs I'd want to host, including Lemmy, pretty much only seem to work through docker-compose.
