Better to use an open protocol like IRC. We hang out at #processwire. If you are new to IRC and want to get going fast: https://kiwiirc.com/client/irc.freenode.net/processwire

For convincing yourself to avoid closed proprietary platforms you can read this article by the Mattermost guys: http://www.mattermost.org/why-we-made-mattermost-an-open-source-slack-alternative/

Ironically, while we were building communications software for our users, our company’s internal communications were failing. In 2013 (before Slack), we relied on another popular team messaging service, which became plagued with issues after it was sold to a large company. The service slowed. It froze. It crashed. It lost data. We tried to leave, but its export function broke. We asked other YC companies for advice. Half the companies responding used the same deteriorating service. Many felt just as trapped as us, because there weren’t good alternatives. We’d been using messaging instead of email for over a year, and it was impossible to go back. We needed a new solution.
