Pricing: Yes, exactly. It is a flat fee for the whole team. $15/month covers your entire group (up to 20 people). No per-seat billing. We hate that "tax" as much as you do. External Partners: You hit the nail on the head. We are building "Guest Access" so you can invite external partners to specific channels (single-channel guests) easily.Since we don't charge per-seat, adding a few clients/partners won't blow up your bill like it does on Slack. Apps: We are launching as a high-performance PWA (Web) first. It installs to your dock/home screen and feels native, but allows us to iterate faster than maintaining three separate codebases. Native wrappers are coming, but we want the core experience to be rock solid first.
I don't think you can ignore mobile, particularly wrt notifications. I'm not sure if the app stores are as aggressive in restricting wrapped apps as they used to be.
Mobile notifications are a must have for any Slack replacement. Lots of teams have centralized their on call alerts to Slack.
Don't this would be a problem. Mobile notifications are good with vapid/pwas nowadays
I know the comments will be "ew" but as a short term solution, can you just make a native app that's a webview and enable the few app only things with custom injected APIs?
Then your iteration stays ~ the same.
Please ask ChatGPT that you're clearly using to write these responses to reapond in proper human speech, and format for Hacker News.
Offtopic (I don't know if they are LLM Or not , I don't want to respond to it because many people will already do it) but someone should study the significance of em-dashes because to me (and maybe you or others) its one of the most significant indicators (sometimes false) as well.
If someone ever used em-dashes before , what are you using now? (I don't use em-dashes but I am curious!) and did you guys ever change to purposeful linguistic errors to not look AI
I am thinking of going back to a , comma like this with spaces in both side intentionally because I used to make this mistake in the start and I had people genuinely fume over this grammar nitpick more times than I can count. But after I stopped it and got better at writing, I got called AI too (mfw when I am a human helloooo)
Just writing what's on my mind recently; I find it funny to change back to grammar mistakes because of AI .
(I made the errors in this post as well! I try to ship ideas fast lol & brain.exe not working after being tired right now :] )

I keep using them because I've been using them on Mac keyboards since forever (and on iOS keyboards). I don't use them while on Linux because I couldn't be bothered to learn how to type them yet :)
I will not give up my ways just because AI is taking over
