They're not doing the adding, though. But I guess it's different if you knew before that Mozilla was involved in this space. I didn't, so it got me by surprise.

That said... it's also good free marketing for Slack, because I for one though they're mostly dead already, and that outside of corporate space, everyone ditched them for Discord long ago.
