> Zulip [has] better UX [than Slack] While yes I like the thread model, I don’t believe most users would agree and say Zulip UX is better.

  Really? I'm surprised many people would disagree. Slack is slow, bloated, has threading as an afterthought, is really hard to navigate, and is very bad at traversing history. In Slack, if I've been away and going through channels to see what I've missed, and want to go back to something I just saw, it's impossible to find again unless I remember the channel name. In Zulip, just scroll up.

    There is a massive difference in # of users of Slack vs. # of users of Zulip. Easily 2 orders of magnitude. People literally like the UI/UX of a Slack so much more than Zulip they are willing to pay for it vs. using a complete free Zulip alternative. I’m not trying to be negative. Just don’t let a vocal minority cause confirmation basis. People have spoken with their wallets on Slacks UI/UX.

      You're telling me that everyone who's used Slack has used Zulip and just found Slack better?

    I find Zulip unbeareable and feel like I was sent back to the 1990s but IRC in the 90s was much better than Zulip in the 2020s. I literally cannot follow anything and be productive in Zulip for communities with a reasonable number of people (e.g. Quarkus). Some of it is obviously personal taste and habits
