Slack is ultimately destructive to deep work - it fragments your attention by definition. The expectation to focus on complex tasks while holding multiple side conversations does not consider the limitations of the human condition.

Slack demands you to follow all the time or you lose the ability to participate in decisions. This is incredibly demanding and destructive.
