> Yes it does, because in almost every case it sucks :)

I mean I get it but fundamentally it's not true. Might seem like a nitpick but it's not. If slack search sucks, that's an absolute statement. It is what it is and there's nothing you can do about other than beg a product manager at slack to make it better but they'll likely ignore you.

With email, an open standard, you can just switch clients. Or bypass clients entirely and handle search separately. There are no limits to what you can do.

Well, I use "the bad option" for search when I need to perform a potentially painful one. Just a depot where every thing gets copied.

I find it, potentially forward something and then carry on.

No, it doesn't. :)

I happen to use an email client with better search and tagging than Gmail.

And it would be? :D

Cleaner, faster, ad-free :D

And... more secure, detecting zero-days Gmail won't :D
