We had a non-compete for 2 years (which expired in late 2016), and I left Slack in 2018. The reason I decided to re-enter the space was after Slack sunset interactive screen sharing, since my earlier hope was to see it thrive within Slack. Once that wasn’t possible, I decided to build it myself!
- toomuchtodo 7y agoCongrats on the exit (money helps live life on easy mode), but after being left to hang out to dry with the acquisition and losing access to Screenhero (which was absolutely essential at the time at a fully remote org), I would never consider a non OSS solution again for this use case. I would absolutely pay for any open source competitor to this type of product, preferably one that integrated with Jitsi (which itself is open source). Fool me once.
