I get the sense that Mattermost is the same kind of eventually-get-you-paying play as Slack.
Other threads are mentioning Zulip, which feels more old-school free as well as Free open source.
- mcv 1y agoWe should stop letting ourselves get suckered into these proprietary systems. Same with Discord. It may look great now, but there's still a company behind it looking to extract as much profit from it as possible, and eventually it will get enshittified. We know this. We've seen it happen dozens of times. We really should stop falling for it. Open standards, easy migration, and servers you pay an honest cost for. Self-hosting, perhaps even. That's where we need to go.
