> Slack is so overrated and people just use it because everybody does.

Sidenote, I use it because the integrations take a burden off of me. Ie, my CI might not have integrations for Discord. My CI has plugins, and do those have integrations for Discord too? Etcetc. Being the most popular is not always just due to "we use it because everyone does".

Personally, I dislike how expensive Slack is. I'm not sure if I prefer Slack over Discord or not, but even if I preferred Discord, I'd still choose Slack for the integrations that I don't have to write myself.
