Re:Salesforce Signs Definitive Agreement to Acquire Slack by prepend on Tuesday December 01, 2020 @09:34PM (#25272656)
I don’t think Amazon wants this. It seems like they are trying to have more completely automated, higher scalable services for companies to build stuff on top of.

While slack and Dropbox are customer facing and build on top of Amazon.

Theoretically that stuff is more value added, but I think their markets are smaller compared to what Amazon is going for.

If the goal is to be the buggy whip maker for the universe there’s a lot more there until they need to start vertically integrating and buying stuff that uses the buggy whips.
