...a Supplemental to 'How To Deploy Discourse Using Nginx As A Proxy And Install A Certificate'

So I was trying to follow along with this for some time:

I managed to replicate after much perturbation…in my soul. Any case, I don’t want you to go through what I went through, so let me try to… supplement…

Now I’m not going to say this is correct, nor efficient. But I will say that it attempts to reduce the amount of homework required to get a discourse going which shares its NGINX reverse proxy with other containers using sockets. This worked for me, but I will perhaps soon go through and get rid of unnecessary steps, perhaps not. Maybe someone else will. That’s the beauty of public discourse without the delete comment button!!!
