Official Instance

Describe the bug

Hi, I installed piped with dockers behind an nginx instance.
I get the piped website, but have no idea what to do next and cant find documentation.

I type in " trees" in the search bar but nothing happens, except a spinning wheel.

Excuse my ignorance, I have no idea where to start troubleshooting.

To Reproduce

  1. search for trees on new vanilla docker piped instance
  2. nothing happens

Expected behavior

video's with trees appear?

Logs/Errors

No response

Browser, and OS with Version.

brace 14.100 on debian

Additional context

no the bug is not reproducable on a working host and I have no idea what logs to look at first

ooooh, wait.
You have to add your own api in the instances under preferences
and then register.

and then it works.
Why doesnt the documentation say so?

Why doesnt the documentation say so?

It doesn't tell you because your instance api url is set as the default if you followed the documentation properly.
