With Microsoft’s Teams catching up, i think Slack need more than just funding and valuation. I have been using it for while and doesn't see much of the development happening. Only thing they have introduced is "Threads", and nothing else which is noticeable. I would love to see few of these in Slack:

- Video calling - Storage - Private Sharing - Guest member - Meeting rooms

Depending on your definition, it has all of those things.

After using MS Teams for a couple months.. I think they have a long ways to go to.

What features does a "meeting room" have, in your mind? I'm curious what you're looking for.
