Hey,
A lot of people have asked me if we have a slack group, so I created one. I know some of the core team are against low-barrier-to-entry instant messaging but I think it’d still be useful to have one for the rest of the community. Here’s the invite link.
I’m curious to hear what this experience turns out like in a month or two. Slack is terrible for searching/archiving and I always feel like it’s hard to avoid being sloppy with questions (or responses) in instant messaging. Maybe it really works for some people.
Someone asked me how to join Slack and I found this.
I don’t think anyone’s opposed to Slack. I don’t use Slack myself, because I already feel overwhelmed with media channels, but I’m certainly not opposed to others using it.
