Yep, Slack's pricing is terrible for communities. I have a community Discord with 2.8k people with full history. If that were on Slack it would be $25,000/month?

That's crazy, it seems like a such a simple thing? It is mostly text with emojis and memes.

As someone who experienced online chat rooms, forums and IRC....it is crazy to me that something like Slack is even successful.
