Why does hosting Lemmy require a display?
Why does hosting Lemmy require a display?
I'm trying to set up my own Lemmy server with Docker. I think I have everything set up, but I'm getting an error Cannot autolaunch D-Bus without X11 $DISPLAY. This error kind of makes sense, because I'm SSHing into my server and have not forwarded D-Bus connections, so $DISPLAY is undefined. But why does a Lemmy server need a display in the first place? Is this a bug and a display isn't actually needed? If I set $DISPLAY to whatever, will it still run okay?

I think there is some info missing. You’re using SSH to access the server where you are running the docker image? Why does your server have X server installed?
I have no experience running Lemmy. It could be the Lemmy instance includes X server to run some kind of GUI? Seems strange.
My server is running the default ubuntu image from Oracle Cloud. I don't think it has X server installed.
