Slack, Curse, Discord, Rocket.Chat...all these new chat apps feel like clones of each other. They're all web/electron-based apps with very similar interfaces and design and they only seem to differ by maybe one or two features, if at all

I use slack at work. Apart from a few special clipboard paste types (like images and other file type sharing), the app seems to offer almost purely only written communication. Integration to other systems might be its strength (via its app directory).

By looking at "curse vs discord" feature list at the bottom of https://www.curse.com/, both curse and discord seem to have much more to offer than slack.

I had not heard of rocket.chat. By quickly looking at its features, it seems pretty similar to slack.
