I've learned to dislike Slack as my career takes me to larger teams. It's great for discovery (think internal Stack Overflow for eng roles), but terrible at maintaining context on a specific "project thread". The argument against this is "you're using Slack wrongly", but at that point, how much more value add do you get from traditional communication methods aka email? Oh, and the "X is/are typing..." is a hostile feature. It's like I'm obligated to sit there with lots of anxiety, waiting for you to deliver the message.
