net5.0 TargetFramework has reached end-of-life #32

Closed Incapamentum closed 1 year ago

Unsure of when exactly net5.0 reached it's EOL, but according to this post, the latest release date was May 10, 2022.

Current VPS service, something.host, only supports up to net5.0, and as of Jan 19, 2023, does not support anything higher than that.

An alternative VPS, as recommended by the maintainers of Discord.Net, is ServerStarter.Host. In fact, there's an entire list of recommended VPS providers.

One thing to note, however, is whether the VPS providers listed actually support net6.0 or higher.

Purchased a .NET container from ServerStarter. Modified the GitHub workflows through two pull requests (namely #33 and #34), and a number of different commits pushed to main (for the sake of listing them: 6ce972974dd3d00d21b8c30974d98a03a6f53b15, e28e6b8fc17c56a0659c3d0eaedb1ee8de968164, 350625050f117430182c834bc2982d40ee91d4bb, a65e495a3175a75e4ca650ae477b0c7187e6cc7b, e827c8a99d77d2d135bb7418ceb91257c67a1c99, 1601e553ed601de76ee14b095b75b0b17d60733c, 067facb7915f2c19a7eadfbae907521cbf43ccf3, b7b3b4c71f5d9dfba8ea3e4839043ba3af28aba9, df826663e0a0864d346eafc66f5d2615b52c0849, 19078ad1d9578d006f3fcee53dbf69f1fbcfd353, 8ffc4674f9bb89df4269995bc383b9710b9aa09c, and ed272a3f2943f077d2b61ad1ea18768106551cf7).

Probably not best practice to have linked all of them above, but may have been necessary (for the sake of documentation) as they were scattered all over, which is perhaps a worst practice that I had done.

Similar issue may be opened once .NET 6.0 reaches EOL, which is expected to occur on Nov 12th, 2024 according to this policy post.
