Slack is a billion dollar company because they made IRC accessible to the non-technical people. Technical people write a terminal client for it because they like being in a CLI for reasons. Making a popular service look and feel like the older service that inspired it is completely reasonable. Different people, different needs, different drivers. Just don't expect the actions and motivations of different groups of people to align with each other. Sure as a while it doesn't seem to make sense but each individual part is reasonable on it's own. There must be a powerful German word for things systems that look crazy at the macro level but are reasonable at the micro level. |
