Slack is being enshittified after the acquisition. I use it less today than beforehand. They have shown they no longer care about small projects and groups, so those projects have moved largely to Discord.
There are so many tech companies with Discord. Are you saying companies like Cloudflare are not serious companies. Know what they know that you don't? You have to meet your users where they are. The open source projects I care about are there.
It's cool if you want to maintain your outdated perspective though
Looking at their product offering it seems they have branched out from their original product that earned them their reputation (IP hiding DNS Servers and proxies), now it looks like they are branching in all directions, including random AI products and generic cloud offerings.
Definitely not getting a "we are a serious company" vibe. More like a "try to appeal and sell everything to everyone banking on our reputation because reputation doesn't pay the bills" vibe.
