Slack, the “all-day meeting with random participants and no agenda“, is even worse when you participate in multiple organizations. In 2017, I deleted the Slack desktop app to cope:
Being signed in to a dozen plus Slack organizations led to notification paralysis — the unread indicator made it impossible to get anything done. Since then, I open the corresponding Slack organization when I’m actively working on a given project, and leave it closed otherwise.
This works well with one drawback: I often lose Slack in a sea of browser tabs.
Behold, a better solution! Nativefier makes it easy to create a desktop app for each Slack organization. For example, here’s how to create one for the Post Status Slack:
nativefier https://poststatus.slack.com/ --name 'Post Status Slack' --icon post-status.png
