| Slack | Discord |
Auto kick | Only happens in private channel or paid channel invite pages. Slack currently doesn't allow us to automate kicking/deactivating from the entire workspace. | Fully automated. Members who cancel or are no longer paying gets kicked from the entire server. |
Multi channel invite | Paid group invite pages allows access to all public channels. | Roles can be assigned to channels so that one invite page can provide access to multiple channels. |
