I've already replaced email with Slack. It's not hard, email is really bad. That said, Slack is sorely lacking here, especially with threads. Slack "threads" are an awful experience, with replies generally ignored, so people don't use them. All I'd need is for Slack to treat threads like a real first class citizens, with a view like HN or Reddit, and I'd be a happy camper.
- karlding 7y agoThreads as first class citizens is something that Zulip [0] focuses on, which makes it much easier to have multiple conversations within the same space. It also makes it easier to ignore any conversations you don't care about. This avoids the problem with Slack where some people might use the threading features, while others ignore it. Personally I'm a huge fan of Zulip, having used HipChat, Slack, Mattermost, Skype for Business, and Discord in the past. [0] http://zulip.org http://zulip.org
