Could someone explain how to set up a lemmy instance with ansible for an absolute beginner

arudesalad@sh.itjust.works to Selfhosted@lemmy.world – 38 points –

I tried earlier today and I had no luck actually getting an instance running

It would help if the explanation was specific to a raspberry pi

No not really. You first enable it on the raspberry pie. Then you access your raspberry pie from your normal computer by running this command in your command line or shell: ssh user@1.2.3.4 where ‘user’ is your raspberry pi user (pi by default), and ‘1.2.3.4’ is the ip address of the pi.

Bold of u to assumw they are using linux as there main pc os. If they are using windows i beleive it doesnt come with an ssh client.

You can SSH using command line. I do have a Windows Pro license, but I THINK that it's not exclusive to Pro....

Huh i vagly remember needing putty but i havnt used windows in almost 5years now.

Yeah I also installed putty a long time ago, I forget if it was actually necessary or if I was just afraid of command line back then.
