Sunsetting Slido's Slack integration: Here's why and what's next

We're announcing today that we'll be turning off our Slack integration on November 30th. Two years ago, we launched our Slack app to make it easier for our users to collect questions without the need to leave Slack.I know that for some of you, the news may come as a surprise. Let me share how we came to this decision and what might come next. 🌇 Why we’re sunsetting our Slack integrationWith this integration, we wanted to bring Slido closer to where you work.
