    Slack is crazy. I’ve only used the web version and find it absurdly slow and poorly designed compared to say discord. No idea how it got so popular

        A little. They keep adding features and overcomplicating it though.

          Yeah, basically everyone who likes discord hates apps I like. Discord is indescribably trash in all possible ways.

            What other apps do you like?

            Mind you I like discord, but the discord apps are pretty shit. I use it in the browser

            Well, its backend uses Elixir and is performant as fuck so not trash in all possible ways.

            And for me Slack shits the bed fairly often and their recent UI enshitification made absolutely no comprehendable sense to me.

            Also, your generalization of people who do or don’t like a specific app is wild to me.

              Okay well I guess there’s one way it doesn’t suck. It handles a server load…?

              From a user perspective, that ought to be something you can mostly take for granted once an app is out of its infancy.
