What is the max number of chat users that can be in a single room for voice and text?

I am analyzing Playfab as a potential backend for my upcoming virtual experience. By it's design, we want as many people to be able to communicate as possible. We avoided Playfab in the past based on the idea that there was a limit of 1000 users in a room for chat. Is this still the case?

I am trying to find documentation on these limitations and am not having any luck today so I decided to reach out directly for assistance

What about the max number of users who can do text based chat? I get that voice has limitations. Do you know how many users can do text based chat in a single room?

I want to know the maximum number of users that can be part of a group that receives realtime network data.

I want to be able to stream game data from a single "god" user's instance into every single game instance available and replay some state from this "god" instance in every game instance that is running
