Has anyone tried to use minio instead of S3 storage?

Minio is a distributed object storage server compatible with Amazon S3, but I don’t know what that means in relation to discourse…

I think it means that it won’t work, at the moment:

As of today, two more S3 compatible alternatives can be used:

1. **DigitalOcean Spaces**

只是想在我们的管理员页面的 S3 下检查设置页面，这是否仅适用于 AWS S3？

感谢 @md-misko，为了确保我们讨论的是同一件事，我指的是这个页面。当然，我总是可以按照您提供的链接中的说明，手动添加配置。

是的，这些是相同的 S3 设置，但最好直接在 app.yml 中设置。这样它们将被隐藏（即在 Web UI 中不可见），这将防止其他管理员无意中更改它们。

请谨慎处理 S3（使用暂存环境进行广泛测试），因为这是高级配置，不易恢复。
