Jitsi could fill this role, but I dont know if it integrates well with Mattermost

Most users will only see the label when they are picking a new device (where the two extra zeros are present). I agree with your points on the database UI and hope they will be fixed soon, but describing the entire system as “utterly unusable” is not really fair.

I mean, who doesn’t love some ethically sourced lead in their chocolate?

So it is not running llms on an average gaming pc

Quick note, HDD storage is not using transistors to store the data, so is not really directly related to Moore’s law. SSDs do use transistors/nano structures (NAND) for storage and it’s storage capacity is more related to Moore’s law.
