Awesome! I’ve been desperately looking for a slack alternative. In part I want something more lightweight, and nowadays there are so many little upsells that get in the way.

My biggest use case is talking to people on other teams (Slack Connect.) How is that managed here?

Also, what is the narrative around adding users and billing? I hate that every time I add someone to slack for a project need to make a buying decision (are they a full user, guest user, active vs inactive…) Is it possible to pay for users when they’re active, and not have to worry about managing seats when projects end?

One of the pain point I've actually seen for Slack is Slack Connect becomes disorganized very quickly to the point where you need a custom solution to manage it. I think it is a symptom of the overall problem with Slack. Since Linen is thread first it makes manage these conversations much easier. We do plan on shipping our own version of Slack Connect or even integrating with existing channels.

Pricing wise we're still figuring out. I do think paying for active users is a likely direction though!
