Slack will never replace email as long as it doesn't have end to end encryption, a feature Slack has indicated it is not going to deliver anytime soon due to the "priorities of paying customers".
Personally I hate Slack as it provides too many distractions. Recently I have starting closing down Slack and only allow myself to check it every half an hour to improve my attention span and concentration. Slack seems to be a great tool for product and project managers, however, less so for developers.
It would be great if Slack would allow me to selectively mute certain channels.For example, the lunch-club channel is only relevant when I am actually onsite, however, I always want to be kept up to date on critical production issues.
- monsieurbanana 7y agoWhen you're on a channel, on the top right you have a cogs for "Channel Settings" where you can find the option to mute that specific channel.
- oxfordmale 7y agoCan you also mute certain colleagues ?
