- EpicEng 9y agoYes... not the only one though. Not a very obvious joke. Also, just checked slack on my Mac: 38MB memory usage, 4 open groups and many channels. So, not a good joke either?

- FireBeyond 9y agoOur team instance, 10 people, effectively idle (1000 messages/week, 99% direct). Client up for one day. Mac: currently using 620MB Windows: currently using 340MB
