Tastes of course vary, but I find switching to a different app is easier than finding one of a number of windows or tabs within a browser.

Open Slack in Chrome, click browser main menu (the rightmost icon), hover on "More tools", click "Add to desktop". You get exactly the same benefits as you get with standalone Slack client but it still runs inside the browser.
