Thanks for the advice. I'm old school and never use Docker, but maybe it's time I get over that. I'm actually out of my element anyway in that I do a lot of self-hosting but up to this point it has almost all used Apache and MySQL rather than Nginx and Postgres. Hopefully someone will come along with a solution for the diesel-async compiling error while I'm at work for the next few hours, but if not I'll give your suggestion a shot this evening.
You'll have to do some reading, but here's some (almost) turnkey repos for all the pieces you need to host Lemmy (and other things) in docker.
I use Traefik instead of nginx to do load balancing / edge routing / reverse proxy / SSL termination (and automatic generation via LetsEncrypt - it's proven to be bulletproof in a good few production setups.
Oh wow that's amazing! Docker really is amazing for hosting stuff nowadays though!
