But slack actively makes it difficult to get logs out of it. Can't even save your own messages that you sent when you were logged in.

Easy to stay logged into irc, hard to fix slack's logging problem

Indeed, you're still paying for electricity to run a server somewhere of course. ZNC, Quassel, The Lounge, WeeChat if you want to do it yourself. IRCCloud if you want to pay someone to do it for you.
