Hmm I suspect that was the case. anyway, what I do now is type to myself, then copy and paste the response.

  If you use the browser client, you should be able to make a simple Greasemonkey script to replace the default text input. Might save some time in the long run. I guess someone like me could make a browser add-on, too. Though I don't know how many people use the browser client vs. the app. If you run a proxy you could also block those requests.

    I did something similar. Hook "WebSocket.prototype.send", check if arg is type "typing", if so return. Likely against their ToS (https://old.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/9bc6gi/bye_bye_betterslack/ https://old.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/9bc6gi/bye_bye...)

    The ability to roll your own Slack Client would be great thing imho. I really don't like the default UI (which is also the same layout as all the web based messaging apps, like it's somehow a good thing). I 100% happy with a small window with an IRC style layout - it's a shame I can't use slack (+whatsapp, +messenger) like this.

      Back in the days we used to solve this by developing protocols not services.
