I just set it up from a git checkout, and it was pretty involved -- the build instructions are actually quite a bit better than usual for development software at this stage, but it's still a complicated process with some changes vs. what's in the instructions. If you're open to that route, I can try to document what I did in more detail + send it along and give some help if you get stuck.
Not the OP but I would appreciate it. I got stuck with building the lemmy image. Not sure why they don't just use a published image
EDIT - found the problem - the docker compose file has the build options enabled for the lemmy image and the published image commented out
EDIT 2 - latest issue - 404: FetchError: request to http://lemmy:8536/api/v3/site? failed, reason: getaddrinfo EAI_AGAIN lemmy
The furthest I got last night, that was where I got stuck as well.
I had an AI write 95% of my kurbenetes config. I had this at one point, it is likely you are not proxying (usually nginx) the Lemmy backend to /api and there are are other endpoints that need mapped to it too.
