A wifi extender would be awesome! Thanks for the suggestion.

So long as you can run Docker, I would think that you could setup an instance. You just need to make sure that the image you use for lemmy and lemmy-ui are compatible with your platform. I had to alter the provided docker-compose.yml file to use arm64 versions for my RaspberryPi.

I mentioned the total disk usage for the sake of setting up a pi. I don't know what the space requirements are for lemmy separate from the bulkiness of an Ubuntu 22.04 install.

My raspberry pi 4 is using 810mb of RAM and 11gb of file system space.

These things hurt me while setting up my Lemmy instance on my Raspberry Pi 4 via Docker.

• The instance name must be less than or equal to 20 characters in length (database limit)
• The lemmy and lemmy-ui docker images must be arm64 (for my Ubuntu 22.04 setup on my RaspberryPi)
• The certbot image needs to be added to the docker-compose from the docker install instructions and "depend_on" the nginx image
• I needed to disable the 80->443 redirect in my nginx config in order to get my initial cert (maybe there's another way)
• The lemmy container needs its own network to allow it to access the internet (permitting searching)
