Slack is technically inept as well. Earlier today I was modifying a robot design in Fusion 360. Huge beast of a model with too many parts to bother counting. Fusion was consuming nearly 900MB of memory (and I am rounding up here). Which is unsurprising for a CAD package editing a large model.

Meanwhile my mostly idle Slack with perhaps a couple hundred users across four teams was consuming 1.3GB of memory.

Not to put too fine a point on it: it is a piece of shit software.
