Thank you heaps for the feedback!
The scalability issues do sound concerning, we would like to get to the bottom of it, we certainly do not want you to have any noticeable issues on a 50 person chat. Can you tell me a bit more about how your forum is set up? Digital ocean plan?
Certainly sounds like a reasonable setting here, by default you should not be allowed to “self” react, just like you can not “self” like. Added to our list.
Absolutely, we plan to add chat retention rules fairly soon. By default we are thinking about keeping this at 90 days, but you will certainly be allowed to push this down to 2 weeks.
