idkwhatusername I'm not the author of FreeFlarum so I can't provide an authoritative answer. However if you follow the link I shared, the next article of the FAQ answers that exact question.

ok

How many users does FreeFlarum support?
FreeFlarum is meant for smaller forums and supports up to 250 users. When you have more users or your forum negatively affects the performance of other forums, we may ask you to move your forum elsewhere.

But if i will reach this limit and i will not move to any other forum what will happen? My forum will be deleted or i can still use my forum. I think that i will have there 250-300 members (some of them may be inactive). @Sanguine

And please fix this error:

    Hi @Sanguine! Love FreeFlarum and what you're doing. Unfortunately there is a 502 Bad Gateway error at the moment. Would appreciate any help you can offer

      idkwhatusername ce720 meetdilip I think I have solved the intermittent 502 problem. Let me know if it happens again for you?

      idkwhatusername But if i will reach this limit and i will not move to any other forum what will happen

      If your forum negatively affects the performance of other stores, we will ask you to migrate elsewhere. If it doesn't, then there is no problem. FYI, there are some forums on FreeFlarum with 7K+ users without a problem.

        Sanguine Hi Sanguine unfortunately the error is back again. Thanks again for the time you dedicate to us!

          ce720 The problem is a crashing PHP-FPM process, possibly because of a bug. Am trying a couple configuration strategies to resolve this. Let me know if it reappears after an hour?

            Currently facing 502 Bad Gateway Nginx error. It won't go away even if I refresh.

              Hi @Sanguine, we are having some trouble to access our forum (hashtagsal.freeflarum.com), getting a "404 Not Found" error. It is a known issue?

                meetdilip it’s FPM auto restart after crash 🙁 not sure what to do. It is possible that some extension is the cause for the crashes, but there’s no debug output unfortunately.

                That is sad +Sanguine . I really hope there is some method to know what is going wrong and fix it. 🙁
