Subject: [PATCH] Use deploy.replicas and variable in proxy_pass in
 improve-public-instance.md (#469)

`Scale` can be replaced with `deploy.replicas` within the compose file.

https://github.com/docker/compose/issues/5586#issuecomment-972130556

Using a variable in proxy_pass forces re-resolution of the DNS names. (In my tests, this helps solving some network quirks)
