Yeah, there's nothing preventing someone from running the PDS server on other distributions. The installer just does a few convenient things for you (like install Docker, opens port 80/443 using ufw, etc) and we haven't added and tested support for other distributions.

There is a Docker compose file in the repo, and advanced users shouldn't have any problems running the code on another distribution or even without Docker if they prefer.

Advanced users can just view the installer script as documentation.

Why do you need to open ufw if it runs in Docker? Docker does its own routing magic and will happily blast right through any ufw rules.

Very cool to see this available though, I might have to try it out later this week!
