This is laudable, since I think recent apps like slack or teams are partially responsible for the increase in disruption. Older ways of messaging, like IRC, were not focused so much on notifications and having a full message history that you had to go through when signing in. This forced people to use specialized forms of communication (video meetings, emails, wikis) for important information. Chat was used for casual stuff, for which it works well.
