I find Zulip unbeareable and feel like I was sent back to the 1990s but IRC in the 90s was much better than Zulip in the 2020s.
I literally cannot follow anything and be productive in Zulip for communities with a reasonable number of people (e.g. Quarkus).
Some of it is obviously personal taste and habits

There is a massive difference in # of users of Slack vs. # of users of Zulip. Easily 2 orders of magnitude.
People literally like the UI/UX of a Slack so much more than Zulip they are willing to pay for it vs. using a complete free Zulip alternative.
I’m not trying to be negative. Just don’t let a vocal minority cause confirmation basis. People have spoken with their wallets on Slacks UI/UX.

You're telling me that everyone who's used Slack has used Zulip and just found Slack better?

Did you play Eve-O by chance?
In Slack, if I've been away and going through channels to see what I've missed, and want to go back to something I just saw, it's impossible to find again unless I remember the channel name. In Zulip, just scroll up.
