Ummm how do you know what Slack workspace you're in?

Use case: I'm in #general. Can I ask a clarifying question about $DAYJOB's (currently private) Q4 plans... or did I accidentally leak that private information because no I'm _actually_ in the #general for _Javascript Geniuses Slacking Together_ community?

You can still see the current workspace icon in the upper left. You just can't see the icons of any *other* workspaces. Which I find maddening for other reasons.

At least you can still switch between workspaces with cmd+1/2/3/4... But this is absurd design decision. Make it at least configurable...

oh and use File -> Workspace -> the workspace you want.

Vs having the list of workspaces on the left with the current one highlighted-with-a-border

The workspace name is literally in the top left corner for me?
