For me the biggest annoying thing about Slack is the calling feature. I don't like unscheduled calls. It also often starts making a racket when I'm in the middle of another call with different software. I might write a browser plugin sometime to disable Slack calls.
For everything else though I usually just close Slack when I'm heads down working and open it during periodic breaks to check for anything important.
