Getting a strange message in Slack that my trial ends today and that I need to upgrade to keep pro features. Anyone else seeing this?
#
[artlung]
[jeremycherfas] that's safely ignored. It's related to Slack attempting to upsell us on "Pro." Any user can opt in the whole instance to preview features, which happened like 30 days ago. I also see the same message. I may not be explaining it well (was if 60 days ago?) but basically it's a Freemium upsell.
#
[jeremycherfas]
thought as much, just wondered whether it was something I did and cannot remember. All too common these days.

On that note, sharing this on the record before I lose it to Slack’s history.

capjamesg [4 September 2026 3:50 PM] I just got a Webmention from https://xiaoni.liahuas.top/moonlight.html. I wonder if they will email me to try and get their post listed in the fiction carnival this month.

Curious. This was on September 4th but I didn’t put it in a chat with archived history.

aaronpk, or delete your DMs so Slack isn't holding onto something that you don't have access to

(which I don't know how that is GDPR compliant tbh)

#
[tantek]
basically if I see a chat from someone unrecognized (not in chat-names) and they immediately link-drop, I'm considering it spam (I believe /discuss#spam hints at this and probably should be explicit)
#
[capjamesg]
Reviewed.
#
[capjamesg]
That feels like a good policy, with the exception of personal website links.
#
[tantek]
want to take a crack at adding a line on that to /discuss#Spam
#
[capjamesg]
I can but it will be an hour or so — am busy right now!
#
[tantek]
that works!
