docs(admin): clarify SYS_NICE capability is Docker-specific#14905
Merged
Conversation
The existing warning about adding SYS_NICE for HEIC preview generation did not make clear this only applies to Docker deployments. Users running Imaginary outside Docker were confused by a Docker-specific instruction that is irrelevant to their setup. Rewrites the sentence to explicitly mention Docker, names both the CLI flag and Compose key, and adds a note that this does not apply outside Docker. Fixes #11083 Signed-off-by: skjnldsv <skjnldsv@protonmail.com>

Summary
The warning about adding the
SYS_NICEcapability for Imaginary HEIC preview support(
--cap-add=sys_nice/cap_add: - SYS_NICE) is a Docker-only instruction, but it waswritten as if it applied universally. Users running Imaginary as a native binary were
confused by a Docker-specific step that is irrelevant to their setup.
