Fluxer looks like a promising app in the vein of FOSS replacements like Spacebar/Stoat, being a UI inspired by or cloned from Discord. Though seemingly it might lean more towards Freemium than FOSS.
I'm a little confused about the Pricing model, can someone clear this up for me please?
In the monetization model for Fluxer, on the main instance you pay $5/mo to:
-
Unlock limits to things like the number of communities, message character limit, etc that are not limited by default on self hosted instances (?)
-
Get features like "Custom video backgrounds, Custom entrance sounds, Custom notification sounds" that are enabled by default on self-hosted instances (?)
Or is the idea here that if you don't pay the dev $5 you don't get access to certain features in the self-hosted free software like video streaming features? (They are only in beta now)
I am on there.
It isn't valid here until federation is active. He needs to do that, and then we will talk.
