2000 (!) Slack Groups — The largest curated list of verified Slack groups

Featured

•

We've been collecting Slack groups since 2016. Back then we found 400 groups. It took us two months to find and aggregate them all.

In 2017, we set a goal to find 1000 groups. We did it successfully and launched the list on Product Hunt.

Presenting you the results of months of hard work in 2018. We collected and verified 2000 Slack groups 😎

Hey, Product Hunt! Alex from https://standuply.com is here. We've been collecting Slack groups since 2016. Here’s what learned and documented. Slack groups keep growing in 2018 in their size and overall number: ✔️ the number of Slack groups doubled from 1000 to 2000 since 2017; ✔️ the total number of their members is 2.2M people; ✔️ the largest group is Kubernetes with 40,000 members; ✔️ top-25 Slack groups account for almost 500,000 members with half of them related to programming; To make it easier for you, we created a dedicated website where we categorized all the communities at your disposal. It took us three months to collect, verify and document this data. Feel free to republish the list, but make sure to put a link to the original source ☝️ Enjoy 🙌

@sprinter what was your initial spark of intention for doing this? Btw it’s awesome. Joined a couple already!

@federicojorge thanks a lot, it motivates us keep doing that

Awesome idea! Finding Slack channels is still a very p2p thing for most people. What's the best way to submit a Slack group? My team runs gratify.ai and we'd love to be considered!

Very cool, too bad it’s not more visually appealing 😏

@cameronswrld that would take us 3 more months then =)

We needed such thing & Its good to have it now. I enjoyed it. But it'd help a lot to provide more tags per channel to help navigating & finding the target channel much easier(instead of using browser search function)

Pros:

Inherently useful, EasyToUse, WellGrouping

Cons:

More Tags would help, Some Blockchain-Educational groups under Financial section
