Ask HN: Any open source alternative to Slack?
Slack is getting expensive, any good scalable alternative to Slack?
- ezedv 3y agoYou might want to check out Mattermost! It's a great open-source alternative to Slack, offering similar features and functionalities.
- mdwalters 3y agoi think matrix is a good alternative, after all, you can self-host it
- Kalpeshbhalekar 3y agoIt's super hard to self host...any other alternatives?
- stop50 3y agoMatrix synapse server is hard to configure, if you don't need some features there are alternatives that need only an config file.
- logiczilla 3y agoMattermost is an opensource Slack clone.
- bravetraveler 3y agoCompared to Matrix/Synapse this is worlds easier to manage I have no experience in what these systems look like when used at scale, only deployed for play, but I expect a simpler life with Mattermost
- mplanchard 3y agozulip is another option
- dysoco 3y agoI've heard of many people trying out Zulip and actually preferring it to Slack at the end.
- plastic_bag 3y agoWe used a self-hosted version of RocketChat at my previous employer's. https://www.rocket.chat/ https://www.rocket.chat/
