Nomad List replaced Slack

Now: Telegram, running 4 years

$120Knet saved per year, after running costs

Nomad List's community chat was on Slack at about $120,000/year for ~1,000 active users (per-user pricing; free tier kept only 1,000 messages of history). Pieter Levels switched the community off Slack; as of 2025 it runs on Telegram for free. He first called out the $120k/y bill in Sept 2022 and confirmed the Telegram move later.
