- rjzzleep 3y agoA little reminder from the past eh? I had to sigh when I read that. I guess purple somewhat died when the companies started banning accounts left and right for using third party clients for using their services. In a few cases it also seems like those bans started happening, because companies wanted to shut down third party clients to make sure people can't bypass ads, but also unfortunately to keep them from harvesting data. I kinda have to ask, what features can you enforce in rate limiting in a first party client that you can't enforce in a third party client?
- creesch 3y agoWhile it is neat that people work on them, realistically these are not replacements for people wishing to have a lighter teams experience. - Non of them are close to feature complete. As soon as you have to do more than chat (share files, do meetings, etc) they will let you down. - In most corporate environments there is some extra layer of authentication involved I highly doubt these clients are able to handle. The best way I have found to have a lighter teams experience is to simply use the web version as a PWA. This basically offers you all the features without the extended footprint of effectively running a second browser.
