Does anymore know if it is possible to install Discourse on my Synology NAS? I have tried the Package Manager Discourse Install but this is very old (version 1.2.1). So I want to install it manual via “discourse-setup”. Is this possible on a Synology NAS with docker support?

That’s a shame! I’m new here, researching forum software for a forum that we don’t want to look like a forum. If you see what I mean. At present, some of my co-conspirators are hooked on Wordpress… I’ve never really liked it, and my only interactions have left me feeling that plugins are buggy and…

You can run a normal install on Synology, but I would only use it for a test platform. It works fine on my 1515+, but it’s probably only a question of time until the docker version supported by Synology is too far behind for what Discourse needs. [image] Discourse as „local“…
