Drawbacks

• 3 months of slack history (regardless of the 10,000 message count)

Pricing

• if we have less then 250 members, the slack instance would be free
• “weekly active members” seems to be around the 40-55 range
• Looks like slack doesn’t charge for “inactive” members. https://slack.com/help/articles/218915077-Slacks-Fair-Billing-Policy
• their regular price after the increase would be around $4350 per year, or $652.50 ... $55 a month basically ... (for 50 users)
• “Pro Plan: We offer workspaces with 250 or fewer members a free upgrade, and an 85% discount for workspaces above that size.” [ed: for non-profits]

Alternatives

Element.io

• Jitsi Integration
• End-to-End Encryption

Discord

• I will say Discord's own tos and coc is kind of a dumpster fire...
