I agree that the Linux situation is not quite the same thing. I'd say it's also dissimilar in another way, a way in which one can't even compare Slack v. Teams to the browser wars of yesteryear...Microsoft Office suite is not automatically installed on most machines! You have to install it from a download or the app store, the exact same medium as how you would install Slack. Microsoft Teams does not ship with Windows 10. It's voluntarily installed, either directly, or as a side-effect of another voluntary installation (Microsoft Office suite).
Anyway, we already agree on the central point of all this: Slack's argument is wholly baseless.

We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
Glad you see my core point. :)
