Yeah, I've never even installed the desktop client. It's an Electron (JavaScript) distribution, so it's essentially just a self-contained version of the site, isn't it? Just go to *.slack.com and you don't have to worry about it.

I even prefer it. The desktop client is an energy hog, drains my battery faster than video playback.
