#4How is this different than wrapping the slack website with Fluid.app?
Also, https://github.com/frankdilo/sblack says "Sblack is no longer available for download since the app is in violation of the Slack Acceptable Use Policy. It was fun while it lasted, sorry guys!"
Also, telling me that it's safe without any evidence is awful. Don't do that. Link to the github repo instead of these meaningless "I promise that you can trust me, honest!" shenanigans.
Also, forcing an email signup to download? HAHAHAHAHA.

to be fair, the original sblack was a "drop your slack app on here and it'll be made into dark mode slack", which involved things that are against the slack AUP. I'm guessing this is a "Fine then, I'll make my own slack client with nightmode and no electron" using the slack APIs...

Agreed, this doesn't seem to me `ultra-lightweight` vs normal slack after looking at Activity Monitor as a quick comparison. However, the dark theme is nice to have.
