I have my own Lemmy instance (Lemmy.emphisia.nl) but I had to take it offline, after running a while it was using more than half of the system memory (16gb in total). Causing the computer to crash as there are a lot of other services also running on it. The problem appears to come from postgress. In btop I can see it spawning a lot of processes all taking up about 80 MB in the beginning but rising as it runs, rising as high as 250 MB per process. I have already tried adjusting the postgress config to be optimized for less memory, but it seems to do nothing.

Is this normal, and if not, what is going wrong?

Hi,

I've been trying to host my own lemmy instance for a while. i've almost got it working (i think). But my problem now is that whenever i try to post something with a picture i get an error SyntaxError: JSON.parse: unexpected character at line 1 column 1 of the JSON data. In firefox i get a 502 bad gateway error pointing to https://lemmy.emphisia.nl/pictrs/image I don't really know why because everything seems to be working

Hello, I've been trying to host my own lemmy instance for a little while now but have yet to be successful.

I recently had my lemmy instance running but i could not find other communities, so i decided to remove everything and try again. Now however when i try to create an account or log in i get the error 404 for the file /api/v3/user/loginand nothing happens.

I've tried removing everything again and starting again but it is still not working

in the lemmy docker container i get the following error

edit: i just managed to log in, however the federation does not seem to be working. None show up in the communities tab and if i look for any communities i get no results and this in the log
