One of the devs said yesterday that API integrations are coming soon. After this, replacing Meteor's Blaze for something like React could make this a serious slack alternative...

What specifically would a user notice with the difference between Blaze and React? I get react is a bit faster under the hood. Its not something that would make this a 'serious' alternative?

this. I've been looking for something to replace facebook messenger to use with my friends. Whatever it is, it would need mobile push notifications. Currently I'm using tinfoil facebook so not getting push messages causes me to miss long portions of conversations in my group chat and I don't want to just use another service, I'd rather host it
