You're comparing absolute minimum of slack with a very heavily used Telegram instance. This is, given the similarity of the apps, not fair.

Compare a "media-heavy" slack with that Telegram, or compare with Telegram minimum.

No, I'm comparing the baseline: Slack's feature set.

To support that, you'd need far more than a "Hello World" stack.
