But… you don’t have to respond to slack in real time. I just check slack a few times a day. It doesn’t interrupt me because I don’t let it.


As Gerald Weinberg said on consulting "It's always a people problem". People expect Slack (or whichever tool) to solve problems that are people problems. If your company expects you to be glued to Slack and respond instantly, that is a culture problem at your company, and needs to be addressed as such.
