I don't want entirely new consumer apps on BSV.

I want plugins and extensions for apps I already use.

Gmail plugin to add pay/get paid to email.
Slack plugin to add message fees.
Calendly plugin to allow price per meeting.
Zoom plugin to charge for Q$A.

Why would you want to have to keep paying monthly for slack per user seat no matter how little you use it?

Bitcoin is pay per use, not a subscription services. We’re going to bankrupt everything you’re currently using.

Why waste time making plugins?

Cool. But creating a new category is needed before you create products to fill it.

A new data/payment structure is a new category/use case.

Get people using it within current habits first. Then they'll demand your newer, better tools.

Also, as a biz owner, I'd much rather pay $8/seat for unlimited Slack usage and never have to think about it than a metered/micro $ model.

Not everything is improved with micropayments.

Also also, you're mostly solving problems people don't know they have. Not felt needs.

"Use a new app when you're not unhappy with Slack" is tough.

"Use this plugin that makes Slack more fun" is easier, and can lead to "I wish Slack was more optimized"

Everything y’all write on slack is being read by the VCs who invested in slack. Every innovation and discussion you have is being milked and categorized to be stolen from you and sold back to you at a later date. You pay for that.

Bitcoin fixes this.

Can you elaborate on your vision for Slack message fees?

Integration where I could set a message per day/week quota for users, and set a price per message they pay when they exceed it.

$ goes into company happy hour/retreat fund or somesuch.

Ensures minimal slack spaming and more productivity!
