Self hosted but can't "install" web app (lemmy.world)

~~I spun up a docker container to self host, but when visiting the site, either locally by port or externally via nginx, I don't have the option to "install" the web app.~~

~~Using the official wefwef.app, I can install it just fine. I'm using Chrome on Android 12. Anybody else? This is using the premade docker image.~~

EDIT: So I had setup my nginx proxy to secure my self hosted version of wefwef by using basic http auth. I disabled it, and that fixed my issue for anyone who does the same.

Sorry. That was a snarky comment. I did mention I'm running it behind nginx. It is behind a proxy with https. ~~And even then I still can't have Chrome install the web app for my self hosted version.~~

EDIT: The issue was I had secured the page with basic http auth and that was preventing me from installing the web app. Disabled auth and it works now. Sorry again about the earlier comment.
