    because there are overdue hosting payments

    oops.

    Although it’s quite an asshole move by discourse to communicate this so openly.

    I wouldn’t want to have a community hosted there when a forgotten expired credit card or something would immediately cause this message to show

      Actually no. If your customers are assholes, threat them as such.

        depends. Continue to not pay? Absolutely. One missed payment that could have easily have been a simple fuckup somewhere? No

      I’m not sure if the issue lies on Discourse. The software itself is FOSS.

      AFAIK I didn’t saw any limitation on the on-prem edition, so I don’t get it why a company like Mozilla doesn’t have the resources to handle that.

      And, even if they are using Discourse’s Cloud infrastructure, it’s not common for services to reach the end of payment without sending a ton of warnings.
