Why not just use IRC?? It scaled for the entire internet.

These IRC replacements do more than that. There are voice and video calls, integrated file sharing, and a whole bunch of tools that you can add.

To be honest, I don't much like Slack because I feel the desktop app doesn't feel like a real macOS app. And I don't use all these features. So in the end, IRC would be fine for me. But it wouldn't for the rest of the company.
