Searched discourse in DO marketplace and installed with that web console. Rest was copy paste code to/from chatgpt. created the admin, some rake create:admin, help from chatgpt. I had to destroy that old droplet as the build took only few seconds, usually would take 4-5 mins. Im not a developer, chatgpt talked abt damaged container, slow ngix, I still dont know what happened. anyway, I have set up a new one now with no smtp, scared of that yml.
