My biggest complaint with Slack has been the lack of alternative clients. Their API is being phased out in favor of forcing you to use "plugins" on top of their broken UI. "Threads" is an absolute abomination, and a properly-designed alternative UI would allow you to merge them into the main channel. But Slack have picked up the attitude that it's "their way or the highway". Given MY choice it would definitely be a non-Slack, open-source highway.
Sorry, but to argue semantics, not only wasn't there a year "0", there also wasn't a 1, 10 or even 50. The Gregorian calendar's year was arbitrarily assigned and is off by a few years anyway. So it makes much more sense to divide decades and centuries by the logical dividing point. Besides, as computer people, we're used to counting from 0 anyway.
