[FEAT] Slack bot
Hey! Great job with Dub.co, just started using it my .new domain links, and you nailed the short links problem really well! 🙌
I did implement or helped to implement internal short links solutions many times, in a couple of companies / for side-projects, and the longest-living one was with a Slack interface, allowing anyone within the workspace to grab a short link with a single command. However, we considered switching to another solution many times due to the lack of analytics, or other features, like custom og meta tags.
So I was wondering, are you planning on exposing some kind of Slack interface to manage (mainly create) short links?
The user-exposed interface could be very simple, just /dub $link $optionalCustomSlug
and it creates and returns the link.
Workspace admin would add Dub.co bot to the workspace once, and anyone could use it.
When it comes to user management, a single bot user could be provisioned, or a "ghost" user for every user who interacts with the bot, allowing them to sign up later in the Dub.co interface.
Let me know if you need any more context, I just wanted to share a bit of feedback and a tiny feature request for consideration!
