Why would you want them to be the same? What percentage of people who use slack on both platforms and who care whether the appearance is the same on both?

Many people expect similar UIs for better branding and easier workflow.

I'd sooner guess that most reasonable people would prefer the UI be consistent within their chosen platform. Yeah, Slack's UI is pretty, but it sticks out like a sore thumb on pretty much every platform because it looks nothing like any of the other applications running on one's machine.
