Comment on All Slack Employees Forced to Spend a Week Getting Salesforce Certifications

Comments

Do any of the courses teach employees how to write memory efficient native apps instead of bundling an entire web browser to run an IRC client?

I’ve used Slack daily for 10 years and never once used their Electron app. It’s a web app after all.

Not all features of calling/screensharing work through the website.

Not sure about all features, but certainly calling and screen-sharing works for me.

There's so much hate in the dev world for their app. I have yet to experience this horrifying performance or whatever in 10 years. Can someone please explain to me why it's so darn bad and why I should care about 100mb?

Slack is an IRC client as much as a shovel is an excavator.

In the tradition of SlashDot, could you rework this into a car analogy?
