Some teams might have sensitive information that they don't want up somewhere they can't control.

Slack has also been banned in China at times.


The claim is true.

Original author here. I started the project in my early 20s when I had lots of free time. Slack didn't really exist back then and the other web based chat offerings weren't great (our company used Campfire).

I gradually stopped working on it as I got busier in both work and life. Part of me regrets not spinning it off as a company, especially after seeing RocketChat take off over the last couple years (we inspired them!).


The company I work for has been offering an enterprise level service like for about 8 years now: https://www.securitycompass.com/sdelements/


Let's Chat is actually three years old :P


Hah, this is awesome to hear. Are you using it with ldap/kerberos auth?


ldap, works like a charm


Any particular reason why you were put off by mongo?


WOW, this has been missing from my life for way too long!

Thank you :D


Oh weird, what browsing are you using?
