There are many os.system calls that assume a user is running debian. These should be changed to run on any system.

ieddit/create_db.py

Line 18 in 91216b1

os.system('bash recreate_psql_db.sh')

./ieddit.py:                    #os.system('python3 get_thumbnail.py %s "%s"' % (str(new_post.id), urllib.parse.quote(url)))
./ieddit.py:                    _thread.start_new_thread(os.system, ('python3 get_thumbnail.py %s "%s"' % (str(new_post.id), urllib.parse.quote(url)),))
./create_db.py:#os.system('rm -rf test.db')
./create_db.py:    os.system('bash recreate_psql_db.sh')

Here are the four places os.system is called. Achieving cross-system compatibility should be fairly easy. These calls can even be omitted completely, and nothing would be lost except the psql db script automatically running and thumbnails.
