I know this is directed at slack but I've noticed the same thing on whatsapp, where, in my circles - anytime there's a `thing` involving more than two people it will become a whatsapp group chat before some people even kown they're involved in the `thing`. You can easily rack up dozens of whatsapp groups and even though they might not be business oriented they make me sweat socially for most of the reasons listed in the article. That's just the tip of the iceberg though, since it seems like an almost natural instinct, at this point, to make a whatsapp group chat for everything. School group projects are also added to whatsapp groups and with these everything the author has listed is true. Probably even to a greater extent. In one project I did a couple years ago our group never met physically for 99% of the tasks, all the meetings we needed to have happened over group chat - bearing all the problems listed in the article. I know for a fact that the resulting work was diminished because of this. Yet, people seem almost enthusiastic about transferring work to whatsapp.
