      One of the best tips I can give is: document (and use docker/docker-compose).

      Start off with just typing it in a textfile somewhere and gradually move to using Obsidian or something, before you know itr you’ve setup a bookstack instance that you’ll reference when eventually shit breaks :P

        Yeah uh, I kinda just ran the Ansible thingy. I don’t actually plan on hosting any communities on my instance, I just wanted to have the @thaumatur.ge suffix on my username lmao. What I’ve been doing every time I fuck up so far is just delete all the files and reinstall with Ansible. One problem I’ve run into is DigitalOcean blocks outgoing port 25 and I have no idea how to bypass that. Can I send emails on the other ports?
