The instructions for Lemmy-Ansible say to install Ansible on my local machine, not on my destination server. My destination server is running ubuntu, but my local machine is windows, so Ansible won’t work on it. Do I need two Linux machines in order to use the Ansible installation?

    Looks like you need more skills to be able to install it

    I used to be with ‘it’, but then they changed what ‘it’ was. Now what I’m with isn’t ‘it’ anymore and what’s ‘it’ seems weird and scary. It’ll happen to you!

      I don’t get what you want to say with it, I don’t know what will happen to me.

      What I know is that “tech” is something I know.

      And I can tell you that what you are trying to do seems some basic operation, you can find documentation https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/os_guide/windows_faq.html#windows-faq-ansible and using search engines to understand how to solve it.

      I really dislike Windows, so I suppose you will need to use WSL and use python directly (the same docs works) or “Docker Desktop.exe” to emulate a Linux to then run docker.
