Just anecdotally, I've noticed a high correlation between: a) People who hate Slack b) People who hate open-plan offices c) People who can't imagine why anyone would ever have a different opinion than them on such topics

"Haters gonna hate Slack too"

Sorry but how can you not hate open office plans?

Sorry but how can you not hate open office plans. Its the most terrible workplace idea ever. In my company, everyone can work from home or gets own office. Period

  May I refer you to item 'c' in jonas21's list? ;-)

    That actually doesn't answer mpfundstein's question and I'm curious too.

      Throw on a pair of headphones. Problem solved.

        Either most engineers are horrible at problem solving or this doesn't actually solve it.

        It’s an additional problem if you find wearing any type of headphones uncomfortable. That’s not a real solution.

The world is not that black and white. I hate open offices but still love Slack and accept opinions of others. I think there is not much correlation between a, b and c.

How is point "C" anything more than "People on that side of the fence are not thoughtful, unlike people on this side of the fence"?

  That they didn't actually say people on their side are any better.
