Uses Docker.

I just noticed that Scaleway use this for their feature requests site too:

Be great to have it on Cloudron!

@jdaviescoates with 20 upvotes and counting...

I still think Flarum is the more mature and polished option in this area:
-
@marcusquinn that's a different category, no? feedback vs forum.
Like comparing uservoice and nodebb.
-
@robi Hmmm, I thought they used to have more of an upvote layout. Maybe my ageing memory.
Maybe also Astuto:

Nope, your memory is good, you've seen people use Flarum for Fider type use case which it also does very well:
@marcusquinn said in Flarum - next-generation forum:
Just discovered this used at orionfeedback.org for browser.kagi.com
Got to say, both the browser and the feedback forum are very fast and nice.

Looks like Flarum can do what fider does, and then more, AND has 27 votes here vs 20 for Fider.
Yeah, Flarum should be higher up the priority list, but hopefully we'll get them both one day! Both great bits of software.

A quick & easy WordPress alternative in the meantime:

@jdaviescoates Yeah, that's open-source for you, sometimes you have to do a bit of maintenance. GPT offers the solutions to update to php8 compatibility. I posted them on their Support. I might start adopting a and publishing a few plugins when I get more time.

@jdaviescoates what made you decide not to use NodeBB or Discourse for user feedback?
-
@robi can I turn the question around? What are the best examples you've seen of node & discourse which allow easy upvoting on ideas? eg https://orionfeedback.org/ is super-clear. https://feedback.fider.io/ is super-clear. I've not (yet) seen the same clarity elsewhere.

Thanks for making this request. I was just about to create an Application Wish for it, too. https://canny.io seems to be the non-Free, proprietary competitor, so I hope Fider is supported on Cloudron.

The pro version just got an update 3 days ago, and it doesn't look too bad. Lifetime deal, unlimited sites... I am thinking about grabbing a license.
