(Or maybe it's the way that people use #Slack. Which isn't strictly Slack's fault, but still, ...)
I sort of miss when we would have internal WG-specific mailing lists, which were archived, web-available and searchable. Anyone could join (almost) any group they wanted. It was threaded (of course), and people tended to write longer more complete responses (with no reaction emoji!).
Don't get me wrong - I love slack for the CI/CD stuff, and as a monitoring dashboard for all sorts of alerts that various parts of the various teams might be interested in, but it doesn't really replace the use-cases that email is actually pretty good at (in my opinion).
