And when you're in a private chat with someone, the jumping text you see when the person you're chatting with is typing. Over 1.5 years and they can't fix that? It's horribly distracting and just kinda sucks.
Atlassian employee here. We moved much of our development efforts to Stride, our next gen team chat software. Be sure to check it out: https://www.stride.com
You guys oughta think about pricing. We just moved, a bit reluctantly, to Microsoft Teams (essentially free because existing MS subscription) because even Hipchat was way too expensive.
Does Stride really need to be $36/user/year, and double that if we need SAML?
Atlassian's pricing is a massive pain in the arse if you're neither a small nor a big business. There's a perfect pain point in the middle of their pricing brackets where you jump from $10 per month for 3 users, to $20 per user as soon as you add a 4th (Helpdesk as an example there).

We were forced to move to Slack as well. Do not like it. It is more distracting than making us productive.
I enjoyed HipChat [https://www.atlassian.com/software/hipchat]
Ugh... Hipchat. Relatively straightforward things that they don't seem to be able to address:
You can't chat with more than 1 person without creating a private room. Slack makes this effortless. It's been on Atlassian's radar for almost 1.5 years with no movement: https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Hipchat-questions/chat-wi...

Anyways, the whole thing feels dead and is very clearly a low priority for Atlassian.

That's half the price of Slack.
Slack's pricing is absurd.
Is that just due to client fit and polish or for a more fundamental reason?
