@darius I wonder if Hometown could serve as an alternative to slack for for a project. Non-federated posts obv. vital for internal comms, but could be convenient to be able to make public posts right from the same platform. Hashtags could approximate channels. What do you think?

@datatitian I suppose it *could* work, though I worry about the approximately 1 million edge cases that people in a work environment want. I think the biggest single terrible thing would be the lack of search: even with an elasticsearch cluster indexing Mastodon/Hometown, it's really hard to find stuff, and there is a lack of any advanced search operators (or at least ones that are documented). So it would be really easy to lose the record of a conversation.
