Unfortunately, no. I do not use Slack. So, I cannot provide a specific link or
something. What I know is that @SomeoneElse reported that Slack has an automated
feed which pulls changesets comments from OSM and republishes them on one of
their channels.
For completeness, this discussion spun out of one at
https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/90157565 which in turn spun off from
https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/90174987 .
If I may add that this discussion did not exactly spin out of any of these
changesets but rather Slack's practice has been brought to my attention in a
discussion on changeset 90157565.
For those unfamiliar with it, the OSM US' Slack instance has a
"feed-changeset-comments" channel which shows new changeset discussion comments
shortly after they are added. There are lots of other ways of getting at that
data as well of course - including on osm.org itself.
The issue is not availability of the data but Slack *republishing* content (for
profit) which presumably is not covered either by the ODbL nor the Contributor
Terms.
