Slack When Ready Firefox

Slack When Ready

Protect your focus... spend less time in Slack.

Features & Capabilities

Like with Inbox When Ready, my personal trigger for making this is because I'm frustrated by going onto Slack to check on a single thread, or get a particular bit of info, and then getting totally derailed by all those bright red dots.

What the extension does:

  1. When you open Slack, you'll always see your personal direct messages channel, instead of whatever channel you had open previously.
  2. All your Slack channels will be hidden by default.
  3. Your notification dots will display as gray instead of red.

This is the alpha version of this extension. For more information, see here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1zzxWB3OWG3dXwIelf8oEtJL1yVGhPLZEXz2iy6s57Nc/edit#

Is Slack When Ready Safe?

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Slack When Ready requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Slack When Ready is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
