I jokingly commented a few days back to a friend of mine that Slack is probably the last company I would bet a billion dollars on, to succeed. To be honest, I was very very wrong - Slack is incredible! Anybody can definitely build a Slack clone - its not an out of the world engineering challenge, but it will never be Slack, it will never have the love that Slack pours into its products and dev APIs. <3 Slack!
- LoSboccacc 11y agoWell, the interesting part is that Slack is engaging in underhanded advertisement. I'll make sure to move the hell away from it.
- click170 11y agoI've not heard of this and am not having luck with searches. Source - details?
- pinkunicorn 11y agoI honestly don't know why this comment is being downvoted to hell. I am not an investor in Slack and heck I've been an IRC user all along. I use Slack because my company forces me to. This was a genuine appreciation - I now know better to not praise good things on HN. Not sure whatever happened to the post about "Less negativity" a few months back.
- jakeway 11y agoThis is just an assumption, but maybe it is because your comment had no relevance to the topic at hand.
