Yeah, I guess you’re right actually. You pay money and get more features. I tend to think of subscriptions for Open Source more as donations, but Fluxer is a little different.
But, yeah, like someone else said, you can self-host and not pay anything and get access to everything. Did I mention it’s fully Open Source without a CLA?!
It is, and that makes it much better than Discord, but currently they’re mostly building another monolith on the central instance. Self-hosting doesn’t mean much if the communities are all on there.
I’ll wait for federation, hope it comes soon. Till then, I see more potential in Matrix.
