It’s actually how people build their images, in which some include sensitive data (when they should definitely not). It’s the same problem as exposed S3 buckets actually, nothing wrong with docker in itself.

Have you seen the instructions on how to build the Lemmy images? That's some crazy shit ...

Actually yes, I had a look at them since i wanted to write HelmCharts for the community. That’s also where the community can step up, it can only be better 😊

I actually started looking into creating own Docker images because of how bad Lemmy's Docker instructions are. I'm not even close to anything usable, though ...

I understand! If you need help to do that (or someone to contribute), hit me up ! πŸ˜„
