emily | is that going to be an issue? we pay for a lot of stuff | 10:26:52 |
emily | hmm it's pretty pricey :) | 10:27:05 |
emily | oh | 10:27:20 |
emily |
Free Standard plan eligibility Open-source projects
| 10:27:24 |
emily | no issue then? | 10:27:34 |
emily | we wouldn't get custom SSO but I doubt that's important if we have GitHub login. | 10:27:47 |
Cat | i should note that as far as i know also in Discord land some of the tech we use here on matrix has no equal. | 10:27:49 |
uep | standard is their cloud | 10:27:54 |
emily | yes but see above | 10:28:00 |
emily | oh wait I see what you mean | 10:28:08 |
Cat | Now yes they have a much higher attrition rate for spam acounts but its also actually due to platform rules. | 10:28:11 |
emily | there's paid self-hosted too | 10:28:12 |
emily | still:
Community plan eligibility Open-source projects
| 10:28:18 |
uep | yea | 10:28:18 |
Cat | as in Policy lists are illegal due to platform rules on discord as far as i remember hearing. | 10:28:26 |
Cat | or something stupid like that., | 10:28:32 |
emily | so it seems fine to me? | 10:28:35 |
emily | most likely we'd get it for free | 10:28:38 |
emily | even if it's not strictly part of the plan there are Zulip people who are Nixpkgs contributors too :P | 10:28:49 |
emily | (it's not clear what the Community plan includes) | 10:29:10 |
emily |
Organizations that have up to 10 users, or do not require mobile push notifications, will likely find the Free plan to be the most convenient option. Larger organizations are encouraged to apply for the Community plan, which includes unlimited push notifications and support for many Zulip features.
| 10:29:15 |
emily | okay yeah it includes push notifications | 10:29:20 |
uep | yeah it's not in the list i'm looking at | 10:29:23 |
emily | https://zulip.com/help/self-hosted-billing#free-community-plan | 10:29:28 |
emily | seems pretty clear we can self-host the infra and get push notifs for free | 10:29:37 |
emily | so all good on that front IMO | 10:29:59 |
emily | okay yeah literally the only thing the paid self-hosted tiers give is access to push notifs and email/chat support | 10:30:53 |
emily | and the base paid tier is infinite push notifs which is free for FOSS | 10:31:08 |
emily | (makes sense, they're just charging for access to their server and support resources) | 10:31:21 |
emily | K900: does that match your understanding or? | 10:32:10 |
