Welp, the self-hosted, open-core, Mattermost release just introduced a 10k message limit on each channel.

Time to look for alternatives ...

@duncan_bayne It’s what happens to every good open source project. How many network monitors, sign on systems, report generators, etc first start as open source, then end up having community vs commercial editions, and then make it really hard to use the free versions.

@woltiv It only happens to open source projects owned by companies. It's much harder to do it with projects under copyleft licenses which lack CLAs, because it's much harder to relicense the code and it can't be used as part of a proprietary product.
