What are Indie Business communities?
This list of communities is for solo founders and independent bootstrapped businesses. Having no employees and no investors definitely has it's perks, but going down this road alone doesn't mean you need to make all decisions by yourself. Indie founders who have online communities of like-minded people to rely on for advice can greatly accelerate their growing business.
About Online Communities on Slack
Slack is a proprietary business communication platform, which offers many IRC-style features, including persistent chat rooms (channels) organized by topic, private groups, and direct messaging. Slack is a popular tool for online interest groups to set up realtime chat functionality, as many users are already familiar with the tool as their work communication platform.
