RE: "paywall"

This is part of the Rocky team itself and their infrastructure being
literally in development. They know and understand these issues and are
working to overcome them. They are a team that is growing and overcoming
early mistakes and limitations, and admitting to them. That is admirable
for such a young project. From that "paywall"ed slack this morning:

> Rayzonic Today at 8:26 AM
> May I ask, any advantages on Mattermost over Slack? just curious. Thanks
in advance.

> @Rayzonic Essentially slack is very expensive and not very well aligned
with our values about being open.
> Right now we're losing lots of messages because of the limit of 10,000 on
free plans.
> Something we didn't take into consideration, but should have, was the
accessibility of the platform we choose - but it looks like mattermost does
have good accessibility options. I'm looking forward to hearing your
thoughts on it when we get there!

> The 10k message limit means at our current churn rate messages are lost
in a matter of days not even weeks. Also, their sales team keeps talking to
me, and even though they apparently use CentOS, and seem to be planning on
using Rocky (from an internal unreliable source), they won’t help us with a
properly sponsored account. Mattermost on the other hand is very helpful to
us and open source.
