Perhaps it is true from developer perspective, but from management perspective I welcome clear chat as it is without bells and whistles of countless integrations.

Slack at current state of events turned into colossal distraction and time waster.

All those integrations have nothing to do with comm platform IMO, they are well belong to other business processes.

I think the market has spoken and your view is in the minority I'm afraid. There is a non-zero chance that Windows 2030 Enterprise will throw away the start menu, the desktop, the app store, File Explorer, etc. and replace it all with TeamsEdge (Teams + Edge).

Whether it is market forces or just company shenanigans to make the product irreplaceable, can be a subject of a different discussion, albeit I tend to think of latter.

As the view being a minority, it’s true, no surprise to that in current paradigm.
