Agree 100%. I don't have the mental bandwidth to keep up with the live chatting across 20 channels in each of the 30 Slack workspaces I belong to, while still getting my actual work done.
I have enough time vampires as it is with a grand total of 2 slack channels, even adding a second one messed me up because the first one is my job and the message count should always be zero if I am keeping up, I can't imagine it never being zero. Everyone is drowning in procrastination/focus/attention off ramps and exits.
These are interesting points indeed @DavisBaer. Thanks for sharing it with the community. I'm actually running a community myself for Ruttl. The point regarding indexing was something that I didn't know about. Have you ever tried dabbling around with circle app?
Also, what what are your thoughts on using discord to build a community?

I only open slack twice a day read through everything or it would ruin my life 😁
It's the new inbox 0 email just 10x as distracting because people expect instant responses in a chat format
Agreed. Slack was not meant to be a community tool.

That is true. I would suggest using discord instead of slack for a community.

Yes, I have a community on Circle
Discord is only a good idea until they wake up with no more VC cash and need to monetize lel.
