Slack has a really nice popup that blocks this from happening by mistake, and confirms you really want to do it.

(Also, @here is a great alternative because it only notifies people actively on Slack.)

It would be nice if there was something like @eventually for everyone in the channel the next time they get on or similar.
Isn't that just the 'unread' marker?

I mean if it's imperative that everyone reads it, just send an e-mail instead or keep a non-interactive #announcements channel.

Isn't this the behaviour of @here? It puts a counter and highlight on the channel.
