Depends on the organisation.
Where I'm currently working, we use Discord. Discord is similar to Slack.
It is explicitly for asynchronous communication. We are supposed to not expect immediate replies to questions and comments on Discord, especially as other teammates are in different timezones. Sometimes there's real time chat, but it depends who is on at the time.
I posted some comments yesterday. There was one reply within a few hours, and two more this morning.
Email is pretty much deprecated. Nobody uses it, except to set up calendar entries for meetings, and formal things like HR and invoices.
