It's far better than Microsoft Teams, so I must disagree.

That’s a really low bar.

Both are some of the worst software ever.

Tbh, new teams eat only half the memory old one did.

Still sucks, but it's 700MB RAM vs 1.4GB just to open a chat.

In what way?

I've used a number of interoffice communication apps, and was on IRC in the hey days of dialup.

Slack (for work purposes) just nails the experience for a broad set of users.
