And on this page:
License Proprietary
Until and unless there is an alternative client that is free software
(ideally GPL licensed, but BSD/MIT licensed would also be okay), I would
prefer to stick with IRC or its successor.
I feel it is contrary to the mission of OSM to directly support
proprietary licensed software. (Why do you think I'm mapping on OSM and
not fixing problems on Google Maps?)
this might be a bit of a clash of "why are we mapping" reasons.
for some people means are not important.
for others, osm is one bit in a more open, collaborating world.
osm using slack is like wikipedia using google maps. because they are
more shiny, you know. and probably work better on iphones.
