Permission denied when trying to start coder container

Hello! I have copied the example compose file and changesdvolumes to bind mounts. However, when I start container I get permission error: error: create cache directory: mkdir /home/coder/.cache: permission denied

Here's the compose:
version: "3.9"
services:
  coder:
    # This MUST be stable for our documentation and
    # other automations.
    image: ghcr.io/coder/coder:${CODER_VERSION:-latest}
    ports:
      - "7080:7080"
    environment:
      CODER_PG_CONNECTION_URL: "postgresql://${POSTGRES_USER:-username}:${POSTGRES_PASSWORD:-password}@database/${POSTGRES_DB:-coder}?sslmode=disable"
      CODER_HTTP_ADDRESS: "0.0.0.0:7080"
      CODER_ACCESS_URL: "https://coder.playxe.org"

    group_add:
      - "281" # docker group on host
    volumes:
      - /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock
      - /mnt/user/Coder/home:/home/coder
    depends_on:
      database:
        condition: service_healthy
  database:
    # Minimum supported version is 13.
    # More versions here: https://hub.docker.com/_/postgres
    image: "postgres:16"
    ports:
      - "5432:5432"
    environment:
      POSTGRES_USER: ${POSTGRES_USER:-username} # The PostgreSQL user (useful to connect to the database)
      POSTGRES_PASSWORD: ${POSTGRES_PASSWORD:-password} # The PostgreSQL password (useful to connect to the database)
      POSTGRES_DB: ${POSTGRES_DB:-coder} # The PostgreSQL default database (automatically created at first launch)
    volumes:
      - /mnt/user/Coder/data:/var/lib/postgresql/data # Use "docker volume rm coder_coder_data" to reset Coder
    healthcheck:
      test:
        [
          "CMD-SHELL",
          "pg_isready -U ${POSTGRES_USER:-username} -d ${POSTGRES_DB:-coder}",
        ]
      interval: 5s
      timeout: 5s
      retries: 5
