Yep - this is why I only use Slack via my browser.
Also means that I never have to see the unread message notification if there's no icon for the Slack app in my Dock or Cmd + Tab.
No other notifications enabled. I tab over to Slack when I'm in a time and space that I can respond to questions.
- squiggleblaz 6y agoDoes that reduce the ram footprint and the slowness of the thing, or does it just mean the task manager/system resource monitor files it under "Firefox" instead of "Slack"? (I write and dislike web apps since I tend to lose them. Having dedicated windows which don't host all the links I click on to documents is much more conducive to my organisation style. Actually, I would go so far as to say that I wish web browsers would still let you turn tabs off.)
- CameronNemo 6y agoIt should be less memory because you are not running an entire other instance/version of chromium. You can pin tabs in Firefox. Little harder to lose them that way.
- brandmeyer 6y agoFor me, its not about the resource consumption of my computer, its about my personal resource consumption. Keeping it away from my taskbar (on an entirely different workspace, in fact) helps keep it from being an excessive interrupter.
