Lemmy supports image hosting using [pict-rs](https://git.asonix.dog/asonix/pict-rs/). We need to install a couple of dependencies for this. You can also skip these steps if you don't require image hosting. **NOTE: Lemmy-ui will still allow users to attempt uploading images even if pict-rs is not configured, in this situation, the upload will fail and users will receive technical error messages.**

Pict-rs requires the `magick` command which comes with Imagemagick version 7, but Ubuntu 20.04 only comes with Imagemagick 6. So you need to install that command manually, eg from the [official website](https://imagemagick.org/script/download.php#linux).

Depending on preference, pict-rs can be installed as a standalone application, or it can be embedded within Lemmy itself (see below). In both cases, pict-rs requires the `magick` command which comes with Imagemagick version 7, but Ubuntu 20.04 only comes with Imagemagick 6. So you need to install that command manually, eg from the [official website](https://imagemagick.org/script/download.php#linux).

- Your postgres config might need to be edited to allow password authentication instead of peer authentication. Simply add:

```
|

local lemmy lemmy md5

# Add the line above.
|

# Do not add the line below, it should already exist in your pg_hba.conf in some form.

Minimal Lemmy config, put this in `/etc/lemmy/lemmy.hjson` (see [here](https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/blob/main/config/config.hjson) for more config options). Run `chown lemmy:lemmy /etc/lemmy/ -R` to set the correct owner.

If you did **not** use the `--features embed-pictrs` flag, then this script below is necessary for installing/updating Pict-rs as a standalone server.
