The official documentation for installing with Ansible is very simple, but not very detailed.
If I understand correctly, droplet is just DigitalOcean's marketing term for VPS, so you probably already understand the basics of SSH, simple Linux commands, and running a VPS. You'll want to be familiar with the basics of Docker, and if you choose to use Ansible for installing you'll need to be comfortable with that too.
If you come across any issues during setup you can ask the community for help. It's really not difficult, but there's more to it than
sudo apt install Lemmy
.You're correct. VPS on digital ocean.
You've really motivated me that i can do it ! I'm at basics amof linux commands and ssh. But could be fun learning the docker basics and ansible
