As I tend to about once a year, my discourse update took an unexpected turn.
I love that I can update the app from my phone browser and it just works.
So when the 3.3.0.beta3-dev update failed, my site was down.
I calmly went to the manual update instructions here, and rebuilt the app on the server while nervously fidgeting.
Thankfully, that did the trick.
Grateful for the documentation, and the support when I have a (dumb) question.
Thank you!
