Has anyone managed to make email work with Discourse in a Google compute instance?
Answering my own question: Discourse running on Google Compute just fine with email and all (port 2525). Just don’t bother with the 0.6GB instance, you just run into lots of issues and page loads are really slow. However the 1.7GB instance is a bit on the pricier side, and there’s nothing in between…
I’m currently evaluating an option to install Discourse on GCE.
It’s been over a year since the last response here. Has something changed with regards to GCE best tier & pricing?
Nope, probably has gotten easier, just remember minimum reqs are 1GB RAM and 10GB disk and modern CPU, ideally one with high single threaded perf.
Use Vultr or Digital Ocean, these seem to be the go-to
in fact we should have a hosting solution review topic like Whirlpool forum does.
Many exist already. Scroll through the hosting category.

^^It is indeed Bitnami. What is that? Can you elaborate?
Sí, hay muchos beneficios. Puedes utilizar mucha tecnología. Actualmente estoy ejecutando Discourse en Docker en Ubuntu Bionic desde hace 90 días con un crédito de 300 dólares. Te mantendré informado después de los 3 meses. Tengo un foro pequeño.
