The article's title covers everything. Slack simply serves as a form of social media for the office that reduces employee productivity.

None of that is new to Slack. They could've written an article to make a decent critique of the questionable UI changes Slack introduced, but instead they targeted features that were already there for years, like reactions and huddle.

The new interface just wastes space and hides the notification count of unfocused workspaces. I just wish Slack would start making interface changes like these optional.
