Unless you are paying for it, Slack message history vanishes.
- eterm 11y agoWhereas IRC history persists forever for free? Oh, wait.
- rimantas 11y ago> Slack message history vanishes. And?
- Karunamon 11y agoAnd IRC history doesn't? IRC doesn't even have the concept of message history. Any such thing is done by individual clients/bots. Bringing up message history as a negative is just straight-up disingenuous with that in mind - the answer to both possibilities is the same: use a bot.
- st3v3r 11y ago"Unless you are paying for it, Slack message history vanishes." Same thing with IRC. With Slack, however, I can pay later, and still have access to the history. With IRC, once it's gone, it's gone.
