Hey Discourse team,

great job! The Chat looks really nice and feels more intuitive than the old messaging system. But one drawback I see:

We use the forum in our association and we don’t have a lot of money for a big server. So I somehow restricted the use of files upload in the forum. In the new chat I’ve seen the attachment functionality. Can I disable that somewhere?

Kind Regards,  
Buntspecht

Edit: found the setting: “chat allow uploads” - but one major drawback could be that the chat messages are not searchable
