In my experience, this is generally resolved automatically in the background. It occurs when the device that's supposed to share the necessary keys isn't online while any of your devices are online, and the moment enough devices are connected again, the messages will pop into your timeline. I'd like a "retry" button, but if the error shows up, manually clicking "retry" wouldn't really do much.
As for it being a Slack competitor: just don't enable encryption and you'll skip over a lot of problems, and come a lot closer to Slack in terms of usability.
The threads UX is a bit weird, but it does show you that there are unread messages hidden in threads through a little indicator by the threads icon. Not the greatest UX, I agree, but I wouldn't call it "unusable".
