Zulip is much better alternative due it it's threaded nature and it have nice slack import tool. Please give a try.

I set up Mattermost as a quick-and-dirty alternative, Zulip seemed a bit too hard to setup under pressure. I'm willing to give it a try again though.

If you want help, I'm more than willing.

I recently wrote some kubernetes charts for running Zulip for my new (smol) org, but I've ran Zulip for the last 3 years as CTO for a mid-sized AAA video game development company...

I really would recommend it over Mattermost (which was in use at another development company I was briefly a part of)

It's well documented and very easy to follow, just need to run a few Ansible scripts
