You should really be angry at Slack and not your colleagues. There are loads of ways to prevent this like sending at most one alert per user per minute (if message is unread). It's not rocket science.

Most times when loads of people are "doing it wrong" then it's the technology that is at fault, and not the people.

Over the past year I’ve disabled all Slack notifications and the result is increased focus while I’m writing some code or an email. All the messages will be queued up regardless if I’m being notified (and disrupted) often. Perhaps give it a try!

Yes, I'm angry at slack. No other messaging system I've used does this..
