This is probably going to be a short and sweet post. I was trying to set up Isso, since I didn’t really like Remark42. As always, I was going with the Docker install option, but I kept running into issues setting up multisite - I needed one Isso instance to provide commenting for all of my Hugo sites.
After one Github issue, which really should have been a Discussion - but I thought I had encountered a bug, it was pointed out that I needed run Isso with isso.dispatch instead of isso.run. The Dockerfile from which the image is built has isso.run in its CMD. After discovering that (or rather after being pointed out), I just overrode it in my docker-compose.yml -

isso-comments:

For reference, this was the original error I had got with the container constantly restarting -
