> They have 1000+ channels What a time to be alive First of all, talk to your manager. Ask for a trial that you will use Slack just 2-3x a day as you described and otherwise you want to be contacted via e-mail/Jira/etc. If there's something big and important but not urgent (like "production down we are bankrupt"), ask to forward it to you via e-mail. > I'm simply drowning and my tickets are all piling up.
