Our Discourse instance has been hosted on Digital Ocean for many years, to the point where issues were cropping up due to still being on Ubuntu 18. So, I created a new Droplet with a fresh Discourse install, bootstrapped it, then downloaded and restored the latest backup from the old Droplet. No err…
