It's nice to see so many people reacting and giving feedback :)

The tech stack is super simple:

• GatsbyJS, which is a static website generator in ReactJS;
• Firebase Real-time Database;
• Firebase Hosting;
• Firebase Cloud Functions to automate the data import

I built this in about 2 days. I wanted to build a very specific service to solve a single problem. And I wanted to make it completely automated. I did it :)

I built this because I needed for my startup. We downgraded our account to the free plan and lost most of our conversations. Slack only keeps 10k messages for free plans.

Slack has 8M active users, of which 3M are paid users. Some huge communities. A lot of valuable discussions happens every day. All these conversations are also gone!

I hypothesize that part of the paid teams doesn't need the paid plan except to keep their history alive. Besides, most of these communities would also like to save their conversations.

I'm releasing today. Let's see if my feeling is right.
