Chat clients for work

mtbcSome time ago at work they switched to Slack for team messaging. I dislike their clients and much prefer having my choice of open-source software, especially multi-protocol so that the same precious screen space can serve all my chat needs. At the time I did not much object because Slack offered workable IRC and XMPP gateways. Over time those gateways became less workable and are soon to be disabled. Fortunately with a change in client I find that I can use wee-slack, a WeeChat plugin that uses Slack's API rather than a gateway.
