Jetzt lass uns doch die Freude vor den kommenden Merzjahren 🤢
Das DDR-Ampelmännchen ist mir suspekt.
EDIT: Okay, ich habe die Metapher einfach mal komplett übersehen. Soll keine Aussage zu den Parteien sein. Aber dieser Hut…
4·1 year agoI don’t have an answer for you, just a warning: This is par for the course when it comes to Rocketchat, every major version seems to come with another piece of nagware, another limit, another thing paywalled. I run a server for the non-profit I work for and they haven’t even replied to my mails about maybe offering a more affordable licensing tier before Enterprise.
We don’t need a lot, just push notifications (which they have to pay for, so absolutely fair to limit) and LDAP integration that isn’t intentionally gimped. A supporter tier with no real extra features (we don’t need their customer-facing-type features) and very limited tech support would be really nice, but I guess they don’t want our poor people money. Gotta try just really hard to squeeze something from that stone instead.
Example: First they removed automatic LDAP syncing, then they blocked people from still doing it with cron. You now have to enter your admin password every time to sync “for security reasons” unless you pay at least $10 per user and month or something ridiculous (for a non-profit) like that. Not that you’d know from their website, they’ve removed all pricing information from there.
They’ve also limited the amount of (free, third-party) add-ons you can install while also adding a new feature that lets users see and request add-ons from admins. So many dark patterns.
Rocketchat narrowly won out over Matrix when Covid started but it sure as hell wouldn’t now.
Echter Konservativismus ist für mich durch bedachtes handeln geprägt, ein Gegengewicht zum Hype um neue Ideen aber keine pauschale Ablehnung. Eher ein aktuelles Debian Stable als immer noch Windows XP. Liberales handeln stelle ich mir auch anders vor als es an der FDP-Spitze gelebt wird. Beide legen ihre Ausrichtung irgendwie ständig zu Ungunsten persönlicher Rechte und Freiheiten aus.
