You could setup some sort of form they could fill out. I have a google forms for simple stuff (I know not self-hosted), but you could self host one (or make one) as well. Again, I think nextcloud has a forms plugin, but you could use something like Budibase. Their screenshots even mention ticketing lol. Easiest way to do this imo since your folks will just go to the site with the form, add a description, click some boxes and then you'll see them later.
I've only done basic stuff with Budibase (over kill for what I needed), but you can just slap it on a docker container.
I'd like something with a work flow not a workaround, like uvdesk or osticket but without the other tools than notification mail and ticketing, but if there is nothing more simple I'll go with those
I mentioned that you should consider if you want your support system on the same infra as the system that could be an issue. Creates a catch 22, but you could look at HESK. Simple, email flow. It's SysAids free thing. It itself I don't know if it's dockerized, but you pull a simple nginx/apache+php install, setup a db container (it may support sqlite, can't remember) and you're golden.
