Slack Beta - A faster and nicer Slack built on Electron

Is this the version with comments? Catching up with things I've missed is a pain I can't wait for comments so I can only read the threads that are important to me!

incredibly better. best addition to this version a top bar menu icon that will 1. allow to switch team 2. change colour when updates! (which was critical for me if you have the mac app bar which auto hides) https://cl.ly/1f0W2k0T0K2R

I like the "All Unreads". Feels about the same speed as the "old". Isn't Electron just a newer wrapper around the same web app? So far, I miss the draggable bar since I re-position my Slack window a lot.

Is there a way I can get rid of the Menu Bar icon?

Can we please get a small chat popup view? Like the Hangouts extension (which ironically Google is changing to be more slack-like next month) where a small individual channel would be a chat overlayed over my work and can be collapsed.

You make an electron project but no beta for linux users ? :( Big no for me. It's like doing a react-native app but refusing android or ios...

So much better than previously & a big fan of the app being rebuilt on Electron!

Woah, that's fast! :-)

Finally! The old Slack App simply stopped opening on my Macbook Air, and ground my Macbook Pro to a halt when I had more than one team open at a time. This version is working much better so far, great job.

Slack Beta is amazing, super slick and super fast!
