What do you think about this new community platform in comparison to our Slack community?
Happy Monday Thanks so much for all of the feedback so far, please keep it coming! To kick off week two of our early access period, I'd love to hear your thoughts on our plan to phase out the Slack community in the near future. Here's some important context:
- We're on the free version of Slack, and as such message history gets wiped out frequently because we've far exceeded the messaging cap. This means there is no searchable history of all of the rich knowledge sharing that happens over time.
- Note: this is just one drawback to maintaining our community on Slack; it's an amazing tool for internal collaboration, but even Slack has said very clearly that it's not built for communities like ours.
- We believe the best experience for Guru Community members is to have one go-to place for asking questions, sharing tips and advice, and connecting with the community and Guru team. That said, we welcome feedback if you feel differently and/or have ideas for how Slack could be used thoughtfully as an extension of the Guru Community for specific purposes.
