Move lemmy directory on server? (kale.social)

Is it safe to move the /svr/lemmy/ directory to a new location on the same server? Or is the directory hard coded into different places? Thanks

Are you talking about a docker setup? if so, yes, as long as you update your bind mount to the new location. If manual install, I would think that you'd have to either leave it in place or find what references that location and update it as well.

Ah got it. Yes, Im using docker compose but setup through ansible. Sounds like I just need to update the bind mount then. Thanks

Turns out docker is configured to reference everything though relative paths. I just needed to move the directory and everything kept working.
