I always looked to Slack when it came to real-time communication for business/foss

well, I've been positively surprised by discord for communicating with the foss project community

I think Nitro could "save" them from IPO because they have actual cash flow. Before they started monetizing I was absolutely just counting down the time before they'd need to do an IPO. They have the game store and other sources as well. Though I have no insight into if they're profitable or not.

Never thought of it that way. That does make me more positive towards their monetization and pricing, as it's much preferable to an IPO in my eyes. I'm afraid they might eventually do one regardless, though.
