Nomad job files for running Lemmy. Contribute to Cottand/lemmy-on-nomad-example development by creating an account on GitHub.

I am selfhosting Lemmy on a home Nomad cluster - I wrote the job files from scratch because I did not find anybody else who attempted the same.

I thought I’d share them and maybe they will serve as a starting point for someone using a similar selfhosted infra!

Nomad brings a few benefits from Lemmy specifically over Ansible/Docker, most notably some horizontal scaling across more than one machine.

Feedback welcome!

    Agreed as a first step. Pack is relatively new and not popular currently because there isn’t a great “marketed” repo so to speak. Hopefully that’ll change with it being on the nomad website.

    Personally I think lemmy instance admins could benefit a lot with the scaling capabilities of Nomad. Hopefully is keeps growing in popularity.
