Not as terrible as I expected it to be - has potential. Watch this space. Maybe.

I've just enabled this on my O365 account to give it a go as an existing Slack user.

Bearing in mind it's pre release.... there was a surprising amount of integrated apps already in place, including a few I didn't expect to be high priority. In short - all the 3rd party integration I currently use is already implemented.

It works... the GUI needs alot of work, but hopefully that will come. Things like webhooks from other apps look messy, and Slack allows alot of formatting which doesn't seem to apply to Teams at the mo.

I'm certainly keeping an eye on this...

I was ready to post a very negative message criticising Microsoft for what a terrible job they would do - whilst there is along way to go - it looks like this has potential. Watch this space to see if they deliver....

As for the slack full page ad - WTF Slack?
