Problems with creating my own instance

I am currently trying to create my own Lemmy instance and am following the join-lemmy.org docker guide. But unfortunately docker compose up doesn't work with the default config and throw's a yaml: line 32: found character that cannot start any token error. Is there something I can do to fix this?...

I'm not a pro at Docker, but I've spun up over 30 different services using Docker Compose so I'm more than a novice. I would say that Lemmy's documentation is the worst I've ever seen.

The website points you at that compose file which is (I think?) designed for Ansible. I think there's another example somewhere without all the jibbery joo, but I can't search for it right now.

Edit: here it is https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/blob/main/docker/docker-compose.yml

No idea why they don't link to that one in the first place. I'd fix it if I knew how.

I just updated my comment above with more info, FYI.

I'm a dum-dum, can someone explain? Does "off balance sheet" just mean "we have these "assets" but we aren't going to tell you what they are because we don't have to"?

Are we to presume they are high risk assets?

It was cloudy where I live, but a friend of ours stayed up late and got to see some.

I think the docs recommend (and this is how I have it set up) leaving the go2rtc stream as you have it currently, and changing the stream path for the camera config to rtsp://127.0.0.1:8554/nursery

We like having one because our little one does some funny stuff sometimes.

It has been useful before for telling what kind of crying he's doing. You can tell a lot from audio, but audio/video has helped sometimes.

We have a cheap WiFi camera with PTZ hooked into Frigate. It has been really great, although I ended up buying another wifi AP because our 2.4Ghz is pretty crowded with IoT stuff.

I started shaving as a hobby during lockdown. Now I help run a shaving Lemmy.

Cartridges are expensive. We've been trained by Gillette to think cartridges are the only way, but there are much cheaper options.

One of these and a blade sampler pack will get you started (for anyone interested).

How should I change my polite behavior to be more accommodating?

My parents raised me to always say "yes sir" and "no ma'am", and I automatically say it to service workers and just about anyone with whom I'm not close that I interact with. I noticed recently that I had misgendered a cashier when saying something like "no thank you, ma'am" based on their appearing AFAB, but on a future visit...

I wouldn't worry too much about it. Strangers shouldn't expect you to know everything about them.

TLDR; It's local only by default.

Your router is what determines what has access to what. By default, things can access the internet on ports 80 (http) and 443 (https). Jellyfin has access to the internet to download metadata, art, etc. If you want to block this activity, I don't know the answer to that.

Your router is split between LAN and WAN. Local Area Network (your house) and Wide Area Network (the world). LAN to LAN doesn't have restrictions by default, which is why you can access Jellyfin on port 8096 while you're connected to your home network.

LAN<->WAN has restrictions in place via your firewall. Your router has a default firewall. Some routers allow you to change the firewall rules. Firewalls are very important. Port 8096 is not forwarded to the WAN by default, and you have to change a setting in your router to do that.
