Personally, I consider that quote and post contents in general harmful to a stated cause of a post. At the time of writing, this is a top HN story and what message does it convey to other HN users?
Praising Slack on "being humane", stating that Slack "exudes the feeling of a playground built by kids that know all the cool things" and "feels like the best of the Internet" while mildly disagreeing with TOS policy?
Competitors applying pressure over very low probability event that most users won't even know about? Yeah, that's a competitive advantage Hipchat was dreaming about./s
OP could write a raving Slack review with the same effect.
"There is no such thing as bad publicity" is certainly wrong as a general rule, but in this case it fits perfectly.
Btw, Watsi,not Slack, feels like the very best of the Internet but your mileage may certainly vary.
