Because it's the Atlassian of chat tools. It's the lowest common denominator.
Discord also doesn't let you set message retention that I'm aware of which is an immediate nonstarter.
End up in one lawsuit where the other party demands a fishing expedition and you'll be real happy that you've got retention limited to 90 days by policy and in practice.
- jessaustin 6y agoIf it's legal to set this to 90 days, why can't a firm set it to one or zero days?
- whatsmyusername 6y agoYou could, and I'm sure some places have a business case for this. Most need stuff going back at least a little bit. If I was talking to you about something on Friday and wanted to reference the conversation Monday I'd be real mad if the convo was already deleted.
- jessaustin 6y agoI think I'm confused... there are complaints above that Discord doesn't save transcripts. That seems equivalent to zero-day retention? I haven't used Discord so I'm probably misunderstanding something.
- whatsmyusername 6y agoIf I scroll back in discord I can go back to the first message I ever sent to the servers I hang out on. In slack you can configure a retention period for files, messages, or both. Anything older than that gets wiped.
