Q: Lemmy and Mastodon instances behind existing reverse proxy

This is a slow learning process for me and some of you already helped me a lot to figure out reverse proxies in general. However, I'm not there yet ... so:

How can I set up Lemmy (and Mastodon down the line) behind my existing reverse proxy? I'm trying to install from docker and the docker compose files come with templates for reverse proxy configuration, but these are (probably) only valid, if I'm installing on a dedicated server with nothing else running there.

I tried commenting out the stuff for the proxy configuration, but I can't seem to get it to work. The Lemmy install ends up with 5 docker containers (lemmy, lemmy-ui, ....) and I'm not sure which of them need to be adressed by my proxxy setup. Just getting the lemmy-ui container addressed by nginx didn't work out.

I'm probably way out of my league with what I'm trying here, but if any of you have some useful tips I'd be really grateful.
