I was thinking about this recently. Everyone wants to replicate the success of Mattermost.

I think the reason Mattermost works is because the customer is an IT department. When you get outside IT, the value prop completely vanishes. Regular people buying software don’t know what open source is.

For every Mattermost, there's multiple RethinkDBs.
