Good analysis: Slack is a focus hog and can pull you deep into unproductive
chatter.

For getting work done I actually prefer tools that are more thread oriented,
like GitHub Teams: https://help.github.com/en/articles/about-teams
It gives you a better experience when writing longer messages and I like that it
encourages you to take time and think, because it is more asynchronous.

Especially the constant switch between Slack and GitHub is annoying, so having
all code-related discussions on one platform is great.
I wish @github teams would offer integrations like
Slack does, for getting real-time notifications in (logs, metrics, errors).
