Problems with creating my own instance (feddit.de)

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?

The section in question is

{% for item in lemmy_env_vars %}
{% for key, value in item.items() %}
      - {{ key }}={{ value }}
{% endfor %}
{% endfor %}
{% endif %}

If memory serves, the default docker compose expose the database port with a basic hard coded password, too. So imagine using the compose without reading too much, next thing you know you’re running a free Postgres database for the world.

Edit: yep, still publishing the db port with hard coded password…
