what the heck? this is the stupidest move I've ever seen from Slack. Combine this with a lack of using floating windows (like Messenger on Android) and it's clear that the company is run by operations and sales --- not product. There is clear space to move in on Slack's terroritory

Floating windows? As if they are supposed to be good stuff?

Floating windows and MDI UIs have been phased out in most OSes, apps and GUI toolkits in the last decades favor for far more stable and intuitive docked sidebars and toolbars.

Edit: Is what I wrote inaccurate? Or it's just fans of floating windows voting this down?
