- brabel 3y agoDiscourse is going to pull the same shenanigans as Reddit and Twitter, you can be sure of that. No one is going to host millions of users for free, forever, they'll all come around to get their investment back one day.
- proto_lambda 3y agoWhat? Discourse is free software, they aren't "hosting millions of users" at all, nevemind for free.
- brabel 3y agoSomeone is going to have to host users.
- proto_lambda 3y agoYes, the respective projects themselves. If you can't trust a project not to fuck over its users, why are you so concerned about the hosting of their discussion platform in particular, rather than just about everything else?
- chienandalou 3y agoAre you thinking of Discord? https://discord.com https://discord.com vs https://www.discourse.org https://www.discourse.org
- udev4096 3y agoThink before you speak. Discourse is a self-hostable solution
- brabel 3y agoDo you think self-hosting means "it's free to host"? Do you understand someone is paying the costs of hosting, and that someone can do whatever the hell they want to recover such costs?
- justcool393 3y agousually those costs, for a specific community, are not very high. not sure about discourse specifically, but you can serve thousands of users for relatively cheaply.
