I have tried the docker, ansible, and scratch methods. I have been troubleshooting for a month now. I have gotten nowhere. I need someone to help walk me through how to deploy a lemmy server because the guides are absolute trash.

Please help. I'm wasting money running this VPS and for literally nothing.

Edit: So, I've tried the ansible method, but I can't access my server this way. It just keeps saying "UNREACHABLE". I have generated a dozen keys, none of them work. I have NO PROBLEMS with ssh in Putty. I can use Putty all day. Putty works fine using my ssh key. Ansible does not. No amount of new keys has made any difference. I have countless keys in my stupid droplet because of this hacky garbage.

Thanks for the link. I tried it out and had a problem with the "lemmy.hjson" file. It doesn't look like I would expect, there is a bunch of non-sense. I did the wget command again and checked "config.hjson" and it is identical. So I think there is something wrong with that file.

Whoops. Sorry about that. I used the wrong link. I fixed it and it should pull the correct config.hjson file now. Feel free to try again if you wish.
