Discourse Hosting versus self hosting

Why is it $100 a month for the “standard” package when you can do the same thing for $5-10 a month with DigitalOcean?

Because it’s preinstalled, set up and managed by Discourse on Digital Ocean you are responsible everything


Ahh. Makes sense. I’m planning on making 2 Discourse forums. One that @PaigeLynn would host. And the other one with DigitalOcean.
