On the page https://docs.digitalocean.com/products/app-platform/how-to/add-deploy-do-button/ there is a link with the text "the official page for the DigitalOcean Referral Program." that 404's. It looks like the correct link is now https://www.digitalocean.com/referral-program or a redirect for https://www.digitalocean.com/products/accounts/referrals/ is needed.

I have heard about this but in the meanwhile I can not sign on to it and can not sent a message any help?

I think it'd be better if you could specify if the free allowance stated on the documentation page resets monthly or is one-time.

I'm using Ubuntu 20-04 (LTS) x64 - try to get kernel managed. Documentation seems not maintained. And I'm in doubt about what benefits should be. It seems that the kernel management is not supported any longer. Please fix the documentation and take "kernel" menu away. --> I have lost "console" feature after fumbling with this :-( Just waisted some life on something that turned out to be rubbish, but still paying invoice.

Either remove the (Beta) tag from the CDN PoP locations list, or explain what (Beta) means in the context of the CDN PoP. Does it work or not?

In Windows, the best SSH tool is now Windows Terminal. You can also create the OpenSSH keypair in Windows. If you have a keypair and used it during Droplet setup, connect in Windows Terminal with ssh root@[YOUR_IP_ADDRESS] -p 22 -i ~/.ssh/[YOUR_PRIVATE_KEY_FILE]

DO currently has a page called https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/why-you-may-not-want-to-run-your-own-mail-server However nowhere in the doc does it call out the fact that, if you do it anyway, you will receieve no support from DO when the entire DO network IP ranges are blocked or DO ASN is blacklisted. Currently the page only talks about the difficulties of running a mail server which any mail admin already knows about. It is not explicit on DO's own policies that impact anyone running a mail server on DO. Even if a customer's email server is clean and not sending the mere fact you are running on DO can get you blacklisted and DO will not do anything to resolve the issue at their level.

First command in "Persist Outbound Floating IP Traffic After Reboot" ''sudo echo ... > /etc/cloud/...'' should be replaced with ''echo ... | sudo tee /etc/cloud/...''.

First, this appears to refer to an older version of the App platform UI. I figured it out eventually but the screens no longer look like, or are in the same order, as in the tutorial. Second, there is a missing step regarding the assignment/equality operators for two lines in the sample settings.py : DEVELOPMENT_MODE = os.getenv("DEVELOPMENT_MODE", "False") == "True" # ... DEBUG = os.getenv("DEBUG", "False") == "True" these will always evaluate False (bool) unless I have explicitly set my environment variable (e.g. on a dev machine) to True , for example by adding the following lines to the bottom of <virtualenv>/bin/activate : export DEBUG="True" export DEVELOPMENT_MODE="True"
