I've been happily using Slack from my Emacs ERC mode using the IRC gateway for a couple of years now. Now, they are closing down those gateways. It's sooo annoying! It was such a nice workflow, posting and reading on Slack without leaving my beloved editor.

To quote POTUS, I can only say: SAD!

So you could suggest your groups just move to IRC ... or something else more decentralized, which has an IRC gateway.
