is there literally any chat service that became sustainable without:

charging most users for entry
selling ads and user data
being decentralized

@starshine @delta is doing some cool stuff. I think grant funding has been useful for getting these protocols set up.

I also use Matrix on the daily and it fits the criteria.

@mauve @delta this is not what i asked about :neofox_flop__w_: i asked if any chat service that *doesn't* have any of those three things has become sustainable
