Totally fair and understandable update. Hate that it got to this point but you have a solid project that is really well made. Not for nothing, but have you ever considered making the back end a docker container for users to have the option for self-hosting? Might sound like overkill but I'm having a hard time finding an alternative. The simplicity of yours isn't really matched and that's what I like most about it.
Thank you for the update :( I'm sorry stuff has been so rough to maintain.. You mentioned downgrading to the free plan database and I'm wondering if maybe there could be a way the admin could host their own database? At least to aleviate some of that burden
@tommypanzram unfortunately dockerization isn't a viable alternative. While it would work to clone most of Chattable you'd still need to setup a Firebase account with specific configurations across auth & rtdb, and then you'd need to edit front & backend code to point everything to the new database. Which isn't something I plan to provide support on
Oh my god, this makes me so sad :( Chattable was such an amazing service and it's so sad to see that some people just want to ruin everything for no reason.
We are approaching some hard monthly limits. The first 3 days of January consumed 85% of the monthly hard limit for resources. Chattable will have to stretch the remaining 15% of resources for the rest of the month to remain online
To alleviate this, new accounts are disabled. This means no person can sign up and new anonymous users can't read chats. This will be reverted next month.
Thank you for the incredible work you've done on this project over the years. It's a shame that bad actors have ruined such a great resource. We will support you in your future endeavors either way!
tfw i uploaded with no article title. nice. fixing now
I don't use it personally, but isn't that a damn shame
So sorry this is happening. You will figure it out I know it :]
thanks so much for all the work you've put into maintaining chattable for so long. very sad to see it go :(

I perfectly understand if this would require a lot of code rewriting and whatnot though!
such a shame seeing this go, hope it gets better. Is there a way to donate? Because I know if i could i would
Please open the donations back up. I wish to help you out, even if it isn't with Chattable.
thank you for all your hard work :( i'm sorry things have had to turn out this way

thanks for all the fun times, im will miss you chattable :(
I am really glad to see that Chattable will continue! Downgrading to a free tier plan is kinda genius.
