The problem I have with Slack is that itโ€™s a product โ€œdesignedโ€ for what MBAs like, rather than a product for what working people actually need.

Itโ€™s MBA-centric because it:

  • Expects immediate response
  • Requires excessive chattiness by its design
  • Prioritizes โ€œpresenceโ€ over achievements
  • Need chumminess to really work
  • Is like having 30 or 40 email inboxes instead of just one
  • Is about managing impressions rather than getting shit done

Fuck Slack.
