Not to mention an incredibly heavy web-wrapper Mac app, a memory hog especially if you join multiple Slacks. I actually like using Slack, but this kills it for me. Wishing that a company whose core product is a chat client invested into building a great chat client.
Yes, code reuse, can iterate faster, saves engineering time, etc., but does this all matter if the user experience is sacrificed?
(Spotify, I'm also looking at you.)
- awinter-py 10y agoslack web client is hot garbage -- it takes a 5-count to switch threads.
- cballard 10y agoI'm fine with them using a web view for the chat display (even Apple does that, IIRC), but the wrapper interface, and especially the text input fields, should be Cocoa. NSTableView isn't that hard.
