The issue is the intended use case and not specific licensing and so on. Zulip targets internal chat in a corporate environment, like MS Teams and the like, which makes it ill suited as a Discord replacement.
Fair point, thanks for sharing. Does that mean you consider fine the use of Zulip by open source development teams? Seeing as their main objective is providing organized chat between core contributors (with some level of outsider participation), that is, generally focused on facilitating the work of the project instead of building a community.
If that team currently has a strong email culture, yes. Zulip is basically a "what if chat was more like threaded email" UI experiment.
Teams that are more used to Slack or Discord will probably hate it though.
