  • Five years ago, a open-source project I worked on moved to Zulip (from Slack) and it was a small hurdle. But after a month, I really like it!

    So much that I’ve pushed a few other open source projects (who lived on Discord).

    I was really surprised when I started a new job two years ago and THEY used a self-hosted Zulip. It’s everything Im used to on Slack.

    Discord has team speak/video sharing, which I don’t think Zulip has. But then again, we use something else for video calls.




















  • People don’t realize how difficult it is.

    Not only do you have to do a lot of feature replacement (getting off of teams and using zulip and jitsi. Getting off of outlook and using Zimbra. Using next cloud over whatever the hell Microsoft’s version is)…

    You also have to deal with all the Microsoft chucklefuck IT people who never touched a command line before. The push back I had in previous companies is lazy IT folks who don’t want to learn anything their Microsoft certification didn’t teach them.
