My team at my job is pushing Teams over Slack (which the rest of my dept uses). As someone who has to use both, I find Slack to be wayyyy more useful.
Teams treats each message as if it is a “post” that is meant to be “commented” on and is extremely oriented around thread-based communication. Each “top-level” message gets borders and huge margins and padding in the UI. As a result, you can see fewer messages on the screen at a time. By contrast, Slack has the feature of threads, but defaults to being focused on the general flow of conversation, with more messages on the screen at a time.
Some people probably like the thread-based communication model Teams uses. I do not count myself among them.
