Hi guys,

I’m currently exploring the postgres discourse database for a migration to discourse.

Now I know that postgres holds the content of a discourse board, right? But I can’t find it.

If I create a new topic and call it “loremipsumlorem”, than I can’t find that string back in the postgres database. Where is it? Where are the categories stored? And the users?
