There were tools called bulletin boards or wikis created decades ago that can accomplish what is described above. Far be it for me to defend Teams, but one thing it does kind of right is to automatically create a wiki, a project tracking and a file share page in addition to the chat space for each project so that you can, if you want, use the right tool for the job. That being said I worked at places a decade ago that tried to do the internal bulletin and wiki thing for their projects, and for whatever reason, it never worked anywhere near as well as I've seen Slack work. So while I agree in theory with many of the complaint levied against Slack as a productivity tool, in practice I've yet to see anything work better. But it is also clear that, for whatever reason, I haven't experience many of the time wasting antics that other people seem to be describing.
