put Mattermost into dev mode and it removes all that enterprise gimic gunk
A quick google search did not give any further insights to this, how can you enable this? That sounds like quite some self sabotage on their side.
@fbartels it's for developers and "not recommended for production" but an example of how one might do that can be found here: https://github.com/mattermost/mattermost-plugin-playbooks#license
Not advocating at all for not following the license terms, just something I observed when testing Playbooks for my own use case to avoid the constant nag. -

@doodlemania2 Gah I'm sick of Rocketchat.
It keeps hanging at the moment (since 11 day ago update) Anyone else finding this?

@Sam_uk As in, you have to refresh the browser to see the message going through ? If so, yeah, we see the same behavior at times. Quite buggy this current release.
@girish That issue seems to have been around for many versions. To compare; not having those issues with Nextcloud Talk.
Only thing I can think Rocket Chat might be good for now, having made the switch, is the website chat widget. Although, there's better specialist apps for that on the Wishlist too.

Which can also be easily implemented with Chatwoot if only a chat widget is required.
Ignorance is not an excuse anymore!

@marcusquinn We are switching slowly to Element, will update on how it goes
It's a bit complicated having to many of our customers as well.@girish Nice, last time I looked it felt a bit clunky, but it sounds like they have a commitment to develop, so will have another look at it again too. Saying that, I'm finding Nextcloud Talk just zero effort for onboarding as everyone was already on Nextcloud Files, and seems to like that enough for it to not feel like extra effort for them to use another part of it.

@marcusquinn I see all the praise about NextCloud Talk, however at some point I'd been testing it however, it seems to work pretty well for live one on one talk, but in the other hand, I find very much annoying the constant notifications of every action and move being added to the chat thread, which renders it very difficult to follow the text chat as it is normally. Have I missed something? Or is there a way to cut that?

@micmc Notifications settings at /settings/user/notifications might offer the options you need?

@nebulon Is there an easy way to go back to an older version without losing recent chats?
I can restore from backup, but I assume I lose recent chat history then?

No, I've checked that already. There doesn't seem there's a way to concise that, I thought I was maybe missing something.

I was just reading this...
https://www.reddit.com/r/selfhosted/comments/18a2624/now_that_rocketchat_65_limits_to_25_users_or_less/
Looks like the new 25 user limit can be config'ed back to community edition (no user limit), don't use it myself, thought it might be of interest to those that do. -
Well, I guess they think they are the biggest fish and can start all this shitty behavior. For me, I was already out after I installed it on Cloudron and then a day later I got a mail from a rocket chat employee, trying to get me to buy a license.
