it is selfhostable, vercel and similar are not supported.

It's a shame this project is so stop-start... The world could really use a Discord alternative if they start doing all this age / identity enforcement stuff...

We could use more contributors, tbh - we welcome anyone to give it their shot :) Now is as good of a time as ever to make it count!

wait, vercel can host non-static apps?

it can if they're self contained (ie. sqlite db)

TheArcaneBrony avatar Feb 09 '26 15:02 TheArcaneBrony

sqlite is broken in spacebar now (btw) Maybe someone can try deploy spacebar to vercel

We explicitly do not support deploying on vercel and similar because it's a whole rat's nest that causes issues left and right...

I think you'll start getting a major influx of supporters after the discord move, just being perfectly honest. I know I'll be looking into this. I don't appreciate private companies selling my personal information. (They totally are/will/do, I don't trust them)

the sheer amount of new registrations on spacebar.chat just today is staggering, lol we do not, and will never sell personal info, i can tell you that much! (and even if you dont trust it, the code is right there!)
