I really hope not. Email is an open standard, supported everywhere by
hundreds of tools of different kinds, and doesn't rely on a single
provider. It can be viewed by many clients, customized to each individual
user, and easily archived, searched and aggregated.

Just say no to "modern forum software." It sucks rocks, especially
Slack.
