Hi tabbott. Thanks kindly for offering to answer questions. :)
I signed up on your site just a bit ago, but I'm a bit concerned with the paid upgrade. Unlike Discord, I need to pay per user, which I find onerous and would get out of control fast for the group I run with around 100 members. Is there any plans for a flat fee model? I'm even happy to pay twice what I pay for Discord Nitro, but yeah, $8/mo per user is too expensive.
If it helps at all, it's for a retro computing community group, and not for profit.

Sounds like you could be eligible for free or for a significant discount. Also:
"If there are any circumstances that make regular pricing unaffordable for your organization, contact sales@zulip.com to discuss your situation."
Thank you! I didn't see this when I was first looking into it.
