Teams locked into Slack face compounding frustrations: persistent sync bugs interrupt work, unsolicited AI features are added without opt-out, and price increases are justified by those same unwanted features. The core problem is that communication-critical software treats its captive user base as a testing ground for upsells, with no meaningful path to disable AI additions or negotiate pricing.
