Yeah, and I think when you look at, like the first thing I start to think about when I evaluate something is the experience and the user interface, which is not simply just design, it's also experience. I thought because while they're not venture-backed, not that they're less talented, they've got less resources to apply to eke out all the UX permutations.

And I really just thought it would be less polished. And that's not true. Like the built by nurse thing, the keyboard shortcuts is what's selling me. It's hard selling me like being able to navigate around.

It's completely keyboard driven. Like you can drive it without your mouse a hundred percent if you want to, which is really cool.

Which is why when I go back to Slack, I feel like I'm clicking everywhere and it's so fatiguing in comparison, like one-to-one going back and forth because we are straddling the line. Right.

Where we've got a micro version of our community in our Zoloft and there's conversations happening, there's topics, there's like, I feel like it's pretty fleshed out in a way, like it's on its way to being fully fleshed out.

And then we're going back to Slack for other conversations because we haven't made that cutover yet. And I'm not sure if we will. Maybe we can talk about that here on this conversation. I don't know the answer right now. Yeah. I mean, I kind of feel like I know the answer. What is it? I feel like it's, yeah. Like Zulu is the future. Okay. That's how I feel.

I feel like, so I didn't share this with you yet. Cause I've been, you know me, I'm a reserved, I suppose. I haven't been talking a lot in there. I've been observing people, conversating and participating through observation and here and there jabbing in with some stuff. But the web public stuff is super interesting and,

I think it could be cool to find ways to make the change law community not so much bigger to be bigger, but this idea that I've always shared, and I think you've adopted it too, is this idea of no imposters here. Everyone's welcome. And that same idea where maybe Zulip, because we have this full history and we can self-host it and all the things, we're not locked into their cloud.

We can begin there and move to our own self-hosted version of it. I feel like we have a lot more room to really lean even heavier into community where we could have before, but we've had to pay for it. And it was a significant cost in the Slack world. Where maybe we didn't put that kind of pressure on ourselves to do so because of our known limitations. Whereas now I feel like unfettered.

Now we can literally do what we want. And I don't know this to be true, but I can hypothesize that it would be. That we can get pretty good buy-in and support from Zola. Yeah. In whatever ways. Like if we have ideas for how to make this even more community focused, then I think that there's... I agree with all of that.
