but how does the "subscription" stuff work if you self host? I'm not gonna use fluxer on their servers because they put dumb shit behind a paywall like discord does.

It's open-source and GPL licensed. There are no restrictions if you self-host, the subscription only applies if you use an account on the main server, which pays for development and hosting costs of the main server.

The subscription is only for an account you make on their servers. No such limits exist when you're hosting your own server.

All the paid stuff is disabled when you self host. You can create your own paid tiers if you want iirc.
