Running Lemmy on Yunohost

CrimeDad@lemmy.one to Selfhosted@lemmy.world – 6 points –

What's the best way to run Lemmy on Yunohost? The Yunohost application is out of date (16.3), and I read somewhere that the image handling part of it is disabled. I also saw somewhere that it's possible to install it with the help of Docker, but I'm pretty unfamiliar with that. I'm already using Yunohost successfully for other reasons, so I figured I would just put a personal Lemmy instance on there. Any advice?

I wonder if I could use the old Yunohost application and then update it manually as well as install pict-rs.

If I understood it correctly, they were waiting for the new Bookworm Debian release to be released before updating some of the packages. So if you can wait a bit (a few weeks maybe?) a newer version of Lemmy will be probably added to Yunohost.

What do you mean? Is yunohost planning on rebasing their release off bookworm? Because bookworm was released on the10th

Yeah I guess. Honestly I am not so deep into Yunohost to be able to give you the exact picture why they only have an older version of Lemmy.

Yes, that's the plan. The update from 9 to 10 was really easy, the only problem I got was some Python apps which needed a manual pip refresh, but the instructions were all there.

AFAIK, Yunohost on bookworm is already in testing but it'll be released when the devs feel the update is working correctly.

I tried but gave up on Lemmy on Yuno since Yuno has a specific way of handling apps

And if you where to update, troubles begin..
