How can I run a Lemmy instance on a rPi 4? I've tried several methods and both fail because docker didn't support arm v7 or v8 (lemmy.world)

It's been a rough day. First I tried the lemmy-easy-deploy script because, hey, I'm lazy. That failed, so I then tried the ansible playbook and had some success with it. At first, Let's Encrypt was not working, and I had to sort out my dynamic dns provider.

Once that was sorted the playbook was running well, encryption was working properly, then I got an error that the docker didn't support arm v7 architecture. I then updated to Bullseye, Raspbian 11 and got a similar error that docker didn't support arm v8 architecture.

So what os do I need to be running on this pi to install an instance on it?

it runs fine if you don't cross-compile and build it on the pi itself ( or emulate an arm system using qemu or similar)
