yes. small scale is almost always simpler and less error prone than massive scale.

slack also has pretty dubious quality standards. e.g. their desktop app and their atrocious replacement for screenhero.

The biggest benefit of slack for me is their search. All messages are indexed ready to be searched. Code snippets, images, giphy, attachments, bots. It’s a whole ecosystem, not easily replicable with irc.
