So the thing I've wondered about.. if you create an interesting community on Slack, what's to stop them pulling the rug from under your feet and eventually start charging everyone? Their free offering is really good and I hope the paid users will subsidize it forever, but then I've seen what has happened with other services over the years..
- dexterdog 12y agoSlack doesn't strike me as the kind of company that would do that. So many of the users of the general group slacks also use it at their place of work. Slacks pricing model doesn't work for this in the sense that if they wanted to charge for everybody then every user would have to once for every slack that they are a member of which would kill the large public slacks.
