Slack真是糟糕透了——我曾经使用过电子公告板和14.4k调制解调器。
以下是来自一位自从使用Lotus 123、WordPerfect和QBasic以来一直坐在电脑屏幕后的人给出的诚恳反馈。
首先，选择一个方向并坚持下去。你在聊天中，向下滚动以查看最近的消息。你试图在无尽的软件集成驱动的信息海洋中找到一条私信，于是你点击“最近的私信”，自然开始向下滚动——但不，你得向上滚动才能看到这里的新消息。
于是你找到了一个你认为一直在寻找的消息，但现在你又得向下滚动一次，才能看到更近期的消息，而且速度非常慢。
等待这个慢吞吞的应用程序重新加载你第一次错误滚动的每一条消息，而现在你得朝着“正确”的方向回到你最开始的位置。
你能直接按Control+End吗？或者点击那个箭头期待它能跳到最后一条消息？当然不行。你只能继续滚动，每次加载一页，痛苦不堪，因为你面临的是一个“懒加载器”——更准确地说，是懒惰开发的结果。
这一切为什么会发生？因为你根本找不到你想要的东西。能够摆脱这3,000个完全无用的软件集成中出现的“机器人”聊天会很好。谁需要从Excel或屏幕截图应用中接收消息？这只是为了集成而集成——其中大约2,500个毫无附加价值。
这一切都是噪音。
无用的噪音，现在在我电脑上占据了超过一GB的空间，以支持这一切，同时消耗着CPU资源和我的电费，伴随着一层层思路不清的系统开销，支持那些我现在不需要，也永远不打算使用的应用程序。
在我看来，这根本不值得去修复。它从根本上是坏的，采用了应用开发中的最差实践。
是时候重新思考并重新开始了。
谦恭地，

Here’s some honest feedback from someone who's been sitting behind a computer screen since lotus123, Wodperfect, and Qbasic.<p>First of all, pick a direction and stick with it. You’re in a chat and you scroll down for recent items. You try to find a DM in an an endless sea of software integration driven messages so you go to “recent DMs” and naturally start to scroll down —but no, you scroll up to get to new messages here.<p>So you find one you think you've been looking for but now you have to scroll down once again to see the more recent message, and painfully slowly.<p>Waiting for the slow app to reload every message along the way that you mistakenly scrolled the first time, but now in the 'right' direction to get back to where you started.<p>Can you just hit Control+End? Or click that arrow and expect it go to the end? Of course not. You keep on scrolling as it loads, painfuly one page at a time, because you’re up against a "Lazy loader” – the result of what is more accurately called lazy development.<p>Why all of this? Becasue you can't find what you're looking for in the first place. It would be nice to be able rid yourself of of these 'robot' chats coming up from one of 3,000 absolutely useless software integrations. Who needs to get messages from Excel? or a screen capture app? It's integration just for the sake of integration – with zero value added by likely 2,500 of them.<p>Its all just NOISE.<p>Useless noise that now takes up a footprint on my pc of over a gigabyte on day one to support it all while burning through CPU cycles and my electrical bill with patch upon patch of poorly thought out system overhead to support apps I don't now, and never plan to use.<p>IMO, its not even worth trying to fix. Its fundamentally broken and built using a worst-practice approach to application development.<p>Time to rethink and start over.<p>Humbly yours
