now i get this error when i attempt to access it. anyone know how to set it back?

404: FetchError: request to http://lemmy:8536/api/v3/site

and the command docker compose -p lemmy-easy-deploy logs -f yeilds a bunch of nonsense but this line stood out...

Error: LemmyError { message: Some("Cannot have both private instance and federation enabled."), inner: Cannot have both private instance and federation enabled., context: "SpanTrace" }

Hey, there. This should solve your problem, I guess:

docker compose down

docker compose up -d postgres

docker compose exec postgres psql -U lemmy

UPDATE local_site SET private_instance = 'f' WHERE id = '1';

\q

docker compose up -d

Let me know if that worked or not.

Edit for shorter version: docker compose exec postgres psql -U lemmy -c "UPDATE local_site SET private_instance = 'f' WHERE id = '1';"

Then restart lemmy.
