#2One obvious thing that's missing here is Microsoft's SQL Server. Solid piece of software and associated tooling that has a free "Developer Edition", a full-featured version for developer use!

#5Is there any way to get Slack to provide open source projects with an upgraded account? I have been unable to convince one of my projects to move to something else, but we are at the point where we get less than a month of history on Slack's free account.

Try to convince them to use Zulip? zulipchat.com offers free hosting both at a level resembling Slack's free tier and at a higher tier that's free for open source projects, or you can host it yourself or have some else do that since the software itself is free and open source.

Why would anybody use that if we can just apt install postgresql?

For developer use, sure. But if you want to do anything commercial at all, you start to shell out ma$$ively.
The express (free version) may work for you but it's diversely crippled.

Possibly because MSSQL is 'better', or was. MS could pump almost unlimited money into its optimiser. Posgres doesn't have that and I've been informed a few years ago postgres wasn't as good. Maybe it's caught up now; I don't know as I've no experience with it.

Check out Mattermost Team edition[1], it's easy to set up blazing fast when properly self-hosted.
