Could we add officially supported Arm containers?

Oracle has a pretty generous always free service with Arm; 4 Arm vcpu, 24Gb RAM: https://www.oracle.com/cloud/free/#always-free

AWS has a pretty good free trial to the end of the year: https://aws.amazon.com/ec2/instance-types/t4/

I think it’s generally true that Arm is more efficient and better for the environment.

There are 3rd party Arm images available and I’m running instances with these on AWS and Oracle, but they are not updated as frequently as the official images: https://hub.docker.com/r/masquernya/lemmy/tags

I know if I’m asking I should be ready to help, and I am. But this isn’t something I know how to do.

    Here’s an example dockerfile I wrote (for a different project) that’s a little more transparent

    FROM alpine:3.18.2
    WORKDIR /root
    RUN apk update && apk upgrade && apk add --no-cache git nodejs-current yarn
    RUN git clone https://github.com/hydra-synth/hydra.git
    WORKDIR /root/hydra
    RUN yarn install
    EXPOSE 8000
    CMD ["yarn", "build"]
    CMD ["yarn", "serve"]
