Mattermost is fully licensed under AGPLv3 terms, and portions can be used under Apache 2 terms as well.

I'm not sure why people would say they're not open source.

It's true there's no community-led edition, but that's because no one has taken the initiative to create one yet.

Wrong. Mattermost is dual licensed with proprietary licenses, requiring a CLA to contribute.

Additionally another thing called Mattermost, made by the same people, isn’t open source at all, under any free software license.
