It's just a chat app. You've probably used IRC, or Slack, or Teams. It's really not different from Slack in most ways in the context of your complaints. The main difference, IMO, is that slack servers are generally pretty small, with well defined groups of people, especially if you only use it within a company. Join servers that your friends or interests are in, mute channels you don't care about, join conversations that seem interesting. > I have no idea who is talking, what is being talked about, are you and how are you suppose to follow anything, how to find information that took place 1 min ago and let alone few weeks ago You tell what is being talked about by reading the conversation. And information that is old is not relevant. Chats are basically ephemeral. You can search for info if you know relevant keywords. > how each message somehow takes so much vertical space. User Settings -> Appearance: * Message display: Compact * Adjust chat font scaling * Adjust space between message groups
