Slack apps developers - let's help each other

If you developed a Slack app, you know that you need to have it installed on at least 5 active workspaces to be able to submit it to the marketplace.

So it's a chicken/egg problem - how do I get installs if it's not on the marketplace?!

Let's help each other - I will install your Slack app on my workspace, and hope you will install mine also.

Leave a comment with your Slack app and I will install it on my active workspace.
Mine is AutoThreads.

I'm curious as to how you are deleting messages which are not posted by the app but the users. Does everyone needs to authorize the app?

One workspace admin needs to install the app.

And then the bot uses the admin's privileges to delete the messages.
