Solo founders: choose Telegram for urgent alerts, Slack for logs

By Meridian48 News Desk · Summarised from DEV Community ·

A solo founder argues that the choice between Slack and Telegram for SaaS alerts should depend on the action triggered, not familiarity. Urgent events like payment failures need Telegram's instant delivery, while operational history suits Slack's searchable structure. The rule: if you can't name the action after a notification, it shouldn't be real-time.

Sound advice for solo devs, but the real insight is that most alerts don't need to interrupt you—a daily digest often beats real-time pings.
