People may be starting to realize it's better than slack
Worse.. Slack is owned by Salesforce
love to understand why slack is better - is it primarily because of integrations? or is it something more?
Teams is anything but an alternative to Slack
It’s not better than slack in any way that matters to a corporate user
one of those times, where I will say the big co isn't in the wrong. slack, has suffered the hand of the market. that the deck, the market dealt wasn't in your favor. is slack a product, could be ? but what are the advantages ? strategy 101. real business don't ride on fashion, but utility. teams is good enough.
I doubt it. Many companies depend on Slack's APIs to do things like post build failures or provide custom commands.
Same experience. Coupled with the pricing imo it defies logic why Slack is popular but good for them I guess.
Slack is a multi-billion dollar valued company, we're not kicking them while they're down
What? Slack is objectively better in every way except the open source part
