Problems with creating my own instance (feddit.de)

I am currently trying to create my own Lemmy instance and am following the join-lemmy.org docker guide. But unfortunately docker compose up doesn't work with the default config and throw's a yaml: line 32: found character that cannot start any token error. Is there something I can do to fix this?

The section in question is

{% for item in lemmy_env_vars %}
{% for key, value in item.items() %}
      - {{ key }}={{ value }}
{% endfor %}
{% endfor %}
{% endif %}

as @walden already mentioned, the files in Lemmy's documentation are the wrong ones. The correct file seems to be in https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/blob/main/docker/docker-compose.yml.

The documentation won't help you if you don't want to use Ansible.
