If you prefer to avoid such things, both services have no-cost forks: Ferdi from Franz and Hamsket from RamBox. Both use the "freemium" model: there's a completely functional free client, plus subscriptions for extra features. There are a few of these around – first came RamBox, followed by Franz. There is a brute-force way round this: have one app that embeds lots of separate Electron instances in tabs. Which is fine, but Chrome is famously memory-hungry.

Most of these "clients" are JavaScript web apps anyway, running inside Electron – an embedded Chromium-based single-site browser.

There's no need for this: there are free open standards for one-to-one and one-to-many comms for precisely this sort of system, and some venerable clients are still a lot more capable than you might remember.īut as it is today, if you need to be on more than one chat system at once, the official way is to install their client app, meaning multiple clients – or at best, multiple tabs open in your web browsers. Most modern chat systems are entirely proprietary: proprietary clients, talking proprietary protocols to proprietary servers.

That change was made in response to hardware vendors, especially Lenovo, pointing out that a single-socket server with a 64-core AMD EPYC CPU could run an awful lot of virtual machines at lower license fees than a machine with a pair of 32-core CPUs. Veeam may therefore escape the kind of user anger that followed, for example, VMware's inflationary decision to tweak licensing on terms that meant prices rise with CPU core counts, rather than the number of physical CPUs present in a machine.

He may have a point: cloudy workloads are not tied to the concept of server sockets, and a great many organisations now operate in hybrid clouds. The eyeopening multi-billion-dollar merry-go-round of Insight Partners, Veeam – and their one-time beau N2WS.
