    How is this different than zulip
    • bgwmj1 hour ago
      zulip ui is way worse than slack. Also zulip is >700k loc while this is ~30k. If they were smaller I would've built off them instead

        How zulip is worse? 700K line of high quality code is something to br proud of. It's backward compatible and have very powerful threading system, slack can't compare anything to that

    Firstly - you are going to get sued by Salesforce. You can&#x27;t just make a Slack-clone, use their trademarked name and just add &quot;Open&quot; to the front.<p>Secondly, this is pure AI slop. There are 2 commits - &quot;Initial commit&quot; and &quot;Trim feature table&quot; where you changed the README.<p>Why would anyone use this? Has anyone read any of the code? Do you even understand how (or if) it even works?
