Slack announced a significant change to its platform, saying it will “begin deleting messages and files more than one year old from free workspaces on a rolling basis.”

      More like enshittification overdrive. They already paywall the ability to read messages older than a few months in the free version.

        This change has basically no effect for anyone on a free workspace. Since you can’t read those messages anyway. It only matters if you were going to go paid.

        I think it’s more likely that slack has decided that all free workspaces that would upgrade, probably have, and they don’t want to store all those messages that aren’t going to be read anyway.
