Thank you. It seems to be working now.

I remember having a devil of a time trying to get mlmym and lemmy to talk to each other on my local system when I was poking around at trying to fix some issues in mlmym a few months back. (I should really get back to that at some point...) They had "https://" hard-coded in front of the domain name parameter -- and I didn't want to have to change the Go source code just to get a dev environment up. I ended up working around it by modifying my hosts file (to add a .INTERNAL domain), ran things under podman with host networking, configured Apache on the host to reverse proxy into both containers, and set up a self-signed cert that I had to rebuild into the mlmym docker (by copying in the appropriate crt files + running update-ca-certificates via the Dockerfile). In retrospect, I probably should've just modified the code...

What was the workaround you had to implement to fix this one?

I had to tell our main_nginx that it is "reddthat.com".

services:
  proxy:
    image: docker.io/library/nginx
    ...etc...
    networks:
      default:
      lemmy_internal:
        aliases:
          - reddthat.com

Now its: {user} -> CF -> {server_nginx} -> {frontend_nginx} -> mlmym => ((docker internal network)) -> {main_nginx} -> {{lemmy-ui/api}}
Instead of: {user} -> CF -> {server_nginx} -> {frontend_nginx} -> mlmym => CF -> {main_nginx} -> {{lemmy-ui/api}}
