If you want something that does chat and does it well, go with Discord over Slack.
While Teams doesn't do anything good to write home about, it avoids one giant misfeature of Slack - the fact that if I start typing a message, get distracted, then come back to Slack later, the person or channel that I was chatting in is gone. Into the invisible Drafts section.
I never want this behavior. And there is no way to turn it off.
- paxys 6y agoIf you value your company's privacy and IP do not go with Discord.
- joe_fishfish 6y agoYes! This is the biggest thing I hate about Slack. It feels like it's trying to make Slack more like email, and the whole reason I use Slack in the first place is to get away from email.
- libraryatnight 6y agoIt doesn't do the drafts thing anymore. Well, it does, but it doesn't move it. It stays in the normal location and also goes to drafts. So you don't have that jarring moment where you scroll alphabetically and find missing dm's/channels.
- btilly 6y agoWhen did it stop? I saw it this morning from something that I had started writing last week.
- rjmorris 6y agoI noticed a few weeks ago that it had reverted to keeping my draft in its original location (in addition to putting a copy in the Drafts section at the top). And I confirmed just now that it still does that.
