I absolutely hate that WSJ made this an age thing when it didn't need to be, and I absolutely think that if you find programs like Slack overwhelming that's just because no one's told you how to properly set them up.https://www.wsj.com/articles/the-instant-message-generation-gap-1523972835 …

This is ~actually~ the story WSJ should have written, not a tired youngs/olds divide. The hodgepodge is the problem, not the app itself!pic.twitter.com/kPjUi037sp

Or trained users on how to use Slack well. Email is such a shit show and people have over relied on it when its not a project management tool.

i prefer not to manage how individual people use slack, but i do think it's important for them to know that there are many ways to use it and set it up, and that yes, the default can be unhelpful.
