I am trying to install Lemmy with Docker. I followed the instructions here but I get the following error message:

ERROR: The Compose file './docker-compose.yml' is invalid because:
Invalid top-level property "x-logging". Valid top-level sections for this Compose file are: version, services, networks, volumes, secrets, configs, and extensions starting with "x-".

It says extensions start with “x-”, so I assume that I need to install some extension regarding to logging. This is straightforward, but apparently I haven’t been able to find the right keywords to ask Google…

Could anyone point me to this required extension and how to install it?

    The doc says

    Make sure you have both docker and docker-compose(>=1.24.0) installed. On Ubuntu, just run apt install docker-compose docker.io.

    and I have,

    $ docker-compose -v
docker-compose version 1.25.0, build unknown

    However, I don’t have docker.io, because

    The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 containerd.io : Conflicts: containerd
                 Conflicts: runc
E: Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages.

    I am a bit wary about uninstalling containerd and runc, because I have a few other docker containers running on the VPS and I don’t want to break them. What is the difference between docker.io and the regular docker package? Is it why docker-compose throws an error?
