Atlassian launches Stride, its Slack competitor

I don't keep the client running all the time, but i do get notifications when I'm mentioned by name; haven't noticed any egregious problems.

I don't think Hipchat is a POS - it gets the job done - but it is lacking some features that I would consider to be fairly basic. (Why can't I edit messages except with the s// syntax? Why can't I do basic text formatting?)

I do agree with you on the lack of faith, though. Jira's text formatting is even worse than Hipchat's.

I am very satisfied with the Confluence cloud web text editor, but the Jira cloud editor is TERRIBLE. I wish they would bring the Confluence functionality to Jira.

Confluence annoys me; I don't want a WYSIWYG, I want to be able to just write some markdown without trying to wrestle all my formatting into a form that works.
