Absolutely unbelievable but here we are. #Slack by default using messages, files etc for building and training #LLM models, enabled by default and opting out requires a manual email from the workspace owner.

Has anyone used Mattermost? Has anyone switched to Mattermost? How's hosted Mattermost?

It passes the tickboxes of "actually open source" and "you can just buy hosting", but I don't know how it goes corporateishly

@dgerard @rinze We have self hosted it for a few years. Small scale, but we did move a couple of GB of data archived from slack into it. I've found it pretty solid and like having focalboard built in.

Real deletes are an enterprise feature, but I have a nasty little script to remove "deleted" attached files.

Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.
