Yeah, but multiple windows! OMG! I find managing multiple conversations with Slack so incredibly challenging. Having multiple windows open for active conversations is sooo good.
It's funny to see how basically all the official mainstream IM clients like AIM, MSN, ICQ, etc. used to be 1-window-per-conversation, but then in some odd wave of "modernity" (for lack of a better term) that was all dispensed with, and then now, multiple windows is somehow heralded as a new feature again. To me, it's just common sense that each conversation should be in its own window, instead of stuffing them all in…

Ripcord is great and I use it for Discord and Slack, but it is far from feature complete. Important to note that Ripcord is developed by one person. Some major things that are lacking: * No search (Slack/Discord) * No huddles in Slack * Thread support in Discord For these reasons, I typically navigate to Discord/Slack in the browser when I need access to those features. Not ideal, but the snappiness of Ripcord over t…
I feel like it being based on Electron is the least bad thing about it. Native or not, you have to reach the API for everything and that's slow.

Is there a better frontend for Ripcord? I tried it, and while it's fast, it's just so utilitarian.
There is a theming system included, however, it only allows you to change colors/fonts of UI elements.

Ripcord has had search support in Slack for a while, it's under the Workspace menu. Otherwise, yeah. It's unfortunate to have to open the browser to do some of this stuff but the day-to-day experience of using it is great.
Ripcord survived C&D letters because it didn't charge. I feel bad for OP for putting all this work in, because it's really cool - but you're going to get sued.
Anyone else in a similar boat?

This is just wrong lol. Cancel has never received C&D orders for Ripcord, and it does charge $20 for the Slack features. Please don't spread misinformation you're not even informed correctly on, dude. If they were going to order a C&D order to Cancel, then they would've done it around the project's start (around 6ish years ago). Actually research this stuff before posting posts like these, plz.
> Over the years I've found writing on HackerNews, Reddit and other online sites has given me an outlet to get creative and engage with folks in a way that will shift discourse towards something I'm more interested in. I regularly lie and pretend I know about topics and areas I have zero experience in. I began noticing I received more upvotes and engagement

That description's accurate, but kind of burying the fact that it's clearly being worked on and has recent commits with people testing it. (Scroll through the issue to the bottom)
It looks nice, but if you plan to try it as you default Slack client be aware it is lacking many features: - Edit posted messages (big one, TBA) - Authentication w/ XOXC tokens - Loading older messages - Typing indicators - Starring & Pinning things - Search - Sharing messages - Screensharing and Calls (aka Screenhero) - Joining and creating channels
