I just gave Zulip a try with a team of 3. I loved the UI because I spent years in pain finding things in big Slack and Mattermost installations (big = 30 users, nowhere near enterprise-level). For my two junior colleagues, instead, Zulip was too complicated. We evventually switched over to Discord.

I highly recommend Zulip to anybody who faces the problem that the concept of threads and channels is not a good fit to their mental model of tasks and groups in teams.

How is any chat app complicated with 3 people?
Have you used Zulip? The UX is basically chat for vim and tmux users. It doesn’t “feel” like chatting. Not exactly user friendly.
Well yes, I've used most of the main players. What exactly isn't user friendly about it? You can't find the conversation?
