Counterpoint (from someone who highly prefers in-person communication and video/voice calls to Slack): Slack’s search feature is fantastic, and something I wish I’d discovered the benefits of earlier during Covid. It’s better than email, since I can search public channels even when I’m not included in the thread of discussion. It’s better than a Wiki if, as I believe is common, people aren’t diligent about dumping what they learn in conversation onto a Wiki page.
