You have to keep in mind that this is a kind of game. Almost no one truly, really <i>hates</i> the other product. People don&#x27;t get into fistfights over Vim vs. Emacs. It&#x27;s just a community joke.<p>So for instance I&#x27;m in the IRC camp of group communication, and I&#x27;ll go to great length to use it over Slack, but if you really need me to use Slack and it makes sense, then I&#x27;ll use Slack. But I will be doing cynical jokes so that you won&#x27;t forget I&#x27;m in the other camp :P.
