Nintendo is perhaps the last remaining large company that makes significant effort to include whimsy all over their product experience.

Of course, some of us remember that Apple used to have very whimsical behaviors and interactions throughout their software too, but that has been bludgeoned out of the OS experiences over the last several years.

Getting into the enterprise business smashes any remaining cultural whimsy.

Slack seems pretty whimsical and is an enterprise application, but it's the exception to the rule. :partyparrot:
