IRC? If that were the case, and open source servers like UnrealIRCd were somehow backdoored in a way the community couldn't detect, you're still free to implement your own backdoor-free server and client if you want. The spec is freely and openly available as RFC1459.

That, and there is OTR. You can create your own IRC client in a few lines of code in Python, and you can pull OTR on top of it quite easily.
As far as Slack goes... I trust them as much as I trust Discord: I do not.
