Me and an admin are trying to install Discourse on a cloud or whatever, but we hit a roadblock, and it was finding a supported install without having to pay any money. I tried searching, but all I found was something about Heroku, which I didn’t use. Oh, and I don’t have $150 to pay someone to do it.

Discourse is free but computer rescources are not. Have you had a look at Communiteq?

If you don’t need email support, you can use https://dashboard.literatecomputing.com/ for free if you join the Free Trial group. You enter your hostname, paste in API keys for Digital Ocean and Mailgun and it’ll create the droplet, configure mailgun, send you an email with the required DNS records and finish the install once the DNS stuff is in place.
This will get you a supported install in the sense that it follows INSTALL-cloud. It does not give you an install that is supported for free.
If you need help filling in those fields or setting up DNS records, you might need to pay for support.

That looks like what twofoursixeight set up on, but I’ll (try) to get in touch with him about that.
Oh and by the way, @ondrej that thing is even shorter than the Discourse free trial.

Someone has to pay for the resources it uses and spend some of their own limited lifespan making it work and keeping it working. How could it be free, except at someone else’s expense? What do they gain, except perhaps harvesting your users email addresses?

Good point, but but we do have this thing for some people:
