Thanks for sharing this … I feel a lot of things in common with your “view’ on Slack.

The only thing that's missing is a sense of non-owning anything on the community and the resources shared (and catalogued) by your group discussing a topic. Also you can't export anything and move it elsewhere if you need (that's why I've stopped using Path for example).

At least with IRC I can have a log of what's being said and from who (and when). And I am also sure that there will be no unfortunate management that take everything down from a “fusion” or a bad founding.

Do you think it's silly of me worrying about those topics?

P.S. = merry Christmas!
