You are still misunderstanding. This isn't the problem. The issue is how to keep yourself from being interrupted from non-important messages. Slack provides support for messages that are not time sensitive. It encourages us to treat every channel as either worthy of some urgency to read or completely irrelevant and worthy of muting.
- 1123581321 4y agoI guess I don’t see the problem if a channel notifies you and you either read/action immediately, or triage for later. Why is it a problem if your sender expects you to decide if you have time to deal with an important message now? If the message is long but unimportant, I’d file it in the “read quickly and move on” category. I think I’m disagreeing and not misunderstanding.
