Thank you! How long have you been using Minnit?
If you could change 1 thing about it, what would you change?

We run Minnit on a hobby WEB Radio site using the FREE package. Would love to partake of the advantages of a paid package, but, prices being what they are, our budget doesnât allow for it. Considering that server rental and bandwidth costs are low, I would reduce the monthly fees; the rationale being that such reduced fees will result in more sales, which should result in an increased net cashflowâŚ

I also use the free package, I do agree that plans could run a bit more lower.
@Speedy55 @LuciStG With our feature to allow others to help contribute to upgrading your chat weâre going to add a new tier (âLiteâ) to fit between Free and Basic. That way, itâs easier for one or two users to pitch in, and your chat to immediately receive extended user limits and other things.
What sort of features would you like? I was thinking custom emoji could come down from Community to Lite+Basic (with a less generous limit compared to the higher plans), but if thereâs something folks want more, Iâm willing to consider alternatives :)
Also would like to rope @DestructiveBurn into this

I like that. Thatâs very cool of you. Minnit is such a nice place, which allot of times you donât get that with a chat place such like chatango. I do like them you just may wake up with gross images on your account lol
I like how involved minnit is and how you donât get that here.
I am not sure what can be added yet. I am not a personal fan of discord. But I know people like to add their voice to chat, maybe people can be rewarded in that way with voice abilities for so many minutes. The more you give the more voice minutes. Personally I like the idea of a chat podcast. I want to do a blog talk radio thing, but I donât want to personally use my voice or phone. I need a chat room solution. Could work well with the channels or organizations chats. Give money and get minutes to do something like that.
Hi Jesse. Indeed that would be lovely. I have used other services in the past that did support such a thing. However not for a chat. But I do have some ideas for you.
I would personally not bother with emojis. More chat features will end up getting unlocked anyways and thatâs extra pointless coding for just supporters only. Besides, you have paid for emoji sets anyway.
One simple thing is, just like your staff minnit logo, you can change that to an âSâ
You can have that link to a supporter page with how to become a supporter and why they have that logo. If the person does not want to publically show it, I would add an option in âChat Preferencesâ to disable the logo from the name.
That would be more simplistic in coding. Or you can do the Rank shapes to be an âSâ but I am betting the first option would be best. 
That would educate about it and maybe make another chip in.
Chatango has the option for unlocking premium emojis, font and font background colours but that would be pointless if the chat already has those features unlocked. I am curious as to what all would unlock though as you have said this.
Will it be Basic features that would be unlocked? If so, that would be best.
One simple thing is, just like your staff minnit logo, you can change that to an âSâ
Youâre right that a separate badge / icon is âsimplerâ to program than a rank shape, but nothing good comes easy :)
If I were to make it a badge, I had to answer the following question: âWhat if someone is Verified and contributing? Do we need to add an option for that? Will the Owner be upset if their Verified users lose their badge, or the User be upset if an Owner replaces their badge for contributing?â
Of course, thatâs just a concern with the Verified badge; what about in the future, when weâre very likely to add new badges that Owners can set? Do we let them know âalso there are actions users can take to grant themselves a badge, and then they can override whatever badge you give themâ? How do we determine which badges are more important than others?
These are the questions that I have to think about, so I decided to just make it a rank shape. Itâs better for the current product, better for the future, and honestly I think the rank shape looks cool. I wonât reveal it just yet â stay tuned for that â but you can see that even the most âeasiestâ decisions have lots of other questions pop up. Nothing can be decided lightly.
Will it be Basic features that would be unlocked? If so, that would be best.
Not all of them of course, or else who would buy Basic? But yes, some of the features. 100 users rather than 250 found in Basic; 5 custom emoji (Basic will get 15, Community will get upgraded to 50). SSO coming to all payment plans. Little things like that trickling down, meanwhile the higher tiers still get the âbest of the bestâ, including our new API for Business thatâll continue to be expanded.
Steadily moving forwardâŚ
I havenât used the Organizations version of your chat to WordPress as I already have a different chat that runs on there without any external help. I use Minnit as an âEmbed Chatâ on my other site. So there are differences in the versions you have. However, looking at that Verified link you have the check badge, you can always add one more like âSupport Badgeâ beside it as you have plenty of room to do so and that one should not be removed by the owner.
The Support Badge should not be removed and be proudly shown regardless of what the owner can say. But yes, if you want to do rank shape, thatâs fine as well.
Ok just bring in the font colour changing and 10GB/month,all file types as normal.
Youâll figure it out. Just make it worth it. If youâre cutting features, maybe half price? Either way, good luck! Looking forward to seeing how this will go.
I thought of something last night, chatango has a notif that is sent if you have new chat or dm messages sent to your page there. I was thinking this could help improvement of chatters on minnit if there was a notif of new messages to the chat admin or such like this. This could be a reward feature of supporters, or it could be a power granted to a supported chat or boosted community. Boosted communities could also be a featured community.
I was also wondering if minnit chat would ever have an official chat as well so members of the forum could chat onsite if one existed.
What if Your boosted minnit chat also came with a small homepage add on to be used as a community around your chat, a blog feature or an about page, to feature members of your community for boosting, where they could use the âbadgesâ on their image profile similar to whatâs been discussed.
Boosters could have rewards:
-
Badge
-
So many mins. of broadcast voice or video when it is added.
-
Free boosts at their own community for a period of days
-
Featured Members/Boosted Community featured
-
Boosted chat or members supporting to have small community hp attached around their chats.
Just some suggestions.
Happy 4th to all!
Thank you @LuciStG & happy 4th! Iâm currently out in North Carolina visiting family. :)
We do plan on adding notifications soon. @Vashishta is hard at work on important backend changes that will be done prior to this being possible.
Having an âofficial chatâ requires more real-time moderation. All of the chat owners reading this can understand that running a chat is an important task, so weâd need to make sure that we could properly maintain it, and provide something beneficial that wouldnât just be a copy of this forum.
Thanks for the other suggestions as well. Iâve been working on an update for boosters that I think will help them feel more appreciated for their support :) Stay tuned!
Hello, animated profiles and a voice option should be added in the chat room
Voice channels, just like Cams, are vectors for boneheads to abuse or harass other users⌠I switched to Minnit BECAUSE it had neitherâŚ
Exactly. Discord is praticlly hell because of itâs VCâs.
Hi for every on 
I have a good idea, please add a cat in the ranking list because most people like catsđš
