    You’ll want to use the ARM images instead of the default AMD64 images.

    • For Lemmy: image: dessalines/lemmy:0.17-linux-arm64
    • For Lemmy-UI: image: dessalines/lemmy-ui:0.17-linux-arm64

    Those should get you pass any architecture related issues.

    I’ve finally just got my instance up and running along with using my traefik gateway (instead of the nginx they have). It is 5AM on a Monday for me, so I better go take a quick nap before work. I’ll make a separate post later on the steps I’ve taken to make that work “relatively cleanly”.

    Good luck!

        Yes, the 0.17-linux-arm64 tag currently mirrors 0.17.3-linux-arm64 tag as confirmed by the sha256 hash, and layers. If the developers follow best practice, when they do push 0.17.4 for ARM, it will automatically update to that.

        Having said that, the github issue suggests they’re trying to cross build to one standard image tag, so who knows, maybe we can migrate to 0.17 by itself in the future :)

      Only bad thing though is that there’s no build for 0.17.4 for ARM64v8 right now, despite this version including some “security fixes”, as stated in the changelog.

      That’s why I made this post.

        Someone else mentioned a github issue, looks like their build script for multiarch is failing. I trust that they will resolve this shortly :)

          Hey, chiming in again to ask if you might have a link to the mentioned GitHub issue? 0.18.0 is said to release soon and I’d like to know what’s up.

                Took a stab at it for about an hour, and I’m reminded how bad the docker stuff they’ve got going on is… I’ll be sitting this one out. If you’re able to make it work, please do share your notes. Thank you!

      So I tried to make a post, but it is not showing up. I’m also not seeing other comments on my own instance. I think there might still be some kinks I need to figure out with Cloudflare piece. In all cases, you can see the write up I’ve posted (supposedly in this !selfhosted@lemmy.world community) that’s not showing up here: https://lemmy.chiisana.net/post/264

      Edit:

      It would appear to be up now: https://lemmy.world/post/299429

      However, comments seems to be desync, I don’t see comments on my own instance but see them on lemmy world; and also the post is some how only viewable in new, despite apparently having gained some upvotes (who’d thunk that people cared about my ranty adventure :) ). This goes to show there’s still a lot of things to hash out. I’ll try to update more as I figure more things out.
