Do you know of a better alternative? No irony here, I’m looking for something similar for family and company (50 to 100 people) setting. Was thinking of deploying Mattermost. For family, we settled on Matrix and it mostly works. We are at their default server, and I’m considering self-hosting it in the future. Yet, I’m not sure it’s a good idea to have Matrix deployed for a company. It lacks too many features, including search. Mattermost looked like the best option for me. I did try it locally a couple of months back, and mostly liked it.
However, I never liked them as a company. They have been giving me those ‘we’d give you the community this wonderful opportunity to develop the software for us, for free’ vibes. Now, it feels like my impression correct.
Didn’t realize Mattermost still existed.

It’s still used pretty heavily in enterprise and high security environments.
High security? Without encryption?
They’re not connected to the Internet at all in a lot of cases.
Plus these large organizations want to be able to read the chats in the DB for compliance and legal reasons.
Yep, and very actively developed too.
Whilst I disagree with some of their technical decisions, it’s really good at what it does.
This report is sad to read, and concerning that Mattermost are not communicating back to the community.
