Slack is particularly bad with making anything longer than 10k messages inaccessible. The amount of internet history being lost in these groups is boggling.
I assumed all these SaaSS products are built like carnivorous plants - The spikes only point in.
I tried the data export from Asana once and it was useless.
DuckDuckGo'd a few ones. But not convincing ones.
The UI is not the most modern but the software is productive and friendly for a chat application, particularly when you look for an old information burried in the history.
This earned yet another twitter DM to them telling them they fucked up. They benefit directly from the open source community so this is a huge "fuck you" to everyone involved.
Slimey, shitty tactics. I was previously going to run a company through them but now I'm going to evaluate other options.
There is also a setting for discord "scanning" your messages for bad content, maybe that's something you're looking for.
Which I used quite a bit when that kind of thing was more useful
Does anyone know the specific rule, in the ToS, that Cordless breaks?
You may not use self-bots or user-bots to access Discord.
The API is explicitly for bots, so this pretty clearly bans using said API for accessing user accounts.Adherence to the "guidelines" is accepted as part of the ToS, "you agree to comply with the restrictions and rules of use set forth in these Terms and our Community Guideline"
Seems odd to have an API for bots but ban 3rd party clients!
No? The part of the ToS was never mentioned.
The rest of the first paragraph also make it pretty clear he was banned because of cordless.
If you're still not convinced, the author added later in the readme:
> WARNING: Third party clients are discouraged and against the Discord TOS. There have already been cordless users that got banned, including me (Bios-Marcel, the maker and maintainer)
I am looking for: - Voice/video chat with PTT integrated - An okayish chat with search feature
I would like to be a part (developer) of such project.
Spartial channel structure (like in spartial.chat) is a welcome thing — I would like to make some sort of distributed hackspace with that.
Typical company using open source but also giving the middle finger to open sourcers.
Each time this happens, Stallman seems a little bit more sane.
He always seemed sane to me. If anything, it's the people who knowingly use non-free software (or develop against non-free APIs) who seem a bit insane.
Or the Api is also copyright?
With OSS contributors getting burned out by maintaining stuff they don't get paid for, you propose that "we" build and support something from which people participating in network will get benefits from. Then maintainers have to deal with all the requests and other stuff, it is not just writing code, you also have to run some servers and it is costing money as well.
