<!here> It’s not often that we use notifications on #C0922A726, but today calls for a celebration. If you haven’t noticed, you now have history in Slack! We’re extremely grateful to Slack and specifically to @sam for helping put this in motion.

[hhariri]

To be clear History is just one of the benefits!

[Richard Green]

Standard plan with 17k users !?

[nish]

To put this into context. That’s ~$2.5M right there

[Evgeniy Zaharov]

I hope JB managed to knock out a discount

[nikbucher]

So we can use calls too?

[lewik]

Why do we need history here?)
I think slack for kotlin could be free.

[hhariri]

@lewik there are quite a few Kotlin OSS projects that use this slack for their development and would appreciate keeping a history of discussions they’ve had.

[hhariri]

@nish I think you’re mistaken in terms of how Slack calculates users. It’s active users, not all users.

[nish]

Ah good point ^ I forgot about that.

[gabrielfv]

Well, clicking at a random user gives me the "Call" option, so there's that.

[hhariri]

@gabrielfv I believe that was always there

[gabrielfv]

You might be right, as I've never tried that before actually 😅

[elect]

I'm glad they changed idea

[elect]

I wonder, though, what made them do that

[karelpeeters]

So we get access to the existing history too now? Awesome!
