They're very commercial oriented. I don't think you can host a free server with them with more than 25 people without paying out big $$$.
It's self hostable, they have a docker file.
But does the self hostable option have a licensing system/cap?
The pricing page implies the self hostable option is limited to 25 seats.
Looks like it doesn't. https://www.reddit.com/r/selfhosted/comments/18a2624/now_that_rocketchat_65_limits_to_25_users_or_less/
Given what they've recently started doing I don't think I would recommend it now, however.
Ah, so it's just a weird default you can still override in a poorly documented manner... That's, maybe okay.
What are you referring to about them doing recently?
That thread was posted three months ago, so I assume this was a recent change.
Gotcha, I wasn't sure if you were aware of an additional concerning development or it was just this 🙂
