Yeah, it's the reason I eventually tuned out of Slack too (obviously I don't use it day to day). I used it for some things, some community stuff, every now and then.

So when I open it up on a new machine or after months, you have to go through that magic link bs multiple times! For all your accounts/channels! I did that 2 or 3 times and then I just stopped using it.

I don't even remember what I signed up for over the years, I know some of it was nice (like an LoRa IOT channel, an "AWS professionals" channel, I set something up for the LoRaWan network in the previous city I lived in... All just tuned out because of the login bs.

I don’t get why Slack can’t figure out how to help me migrate all my workspaces on a device I still have and am logged into in a new one in fewer than 3 steps per workspace. Sure, if I’ve lost all devices with the workspaces connected, maybe it needs to be that much PITA, but it’s a pretty common case to add/switch to a new machine or device and that process is obnoxiously poorly executed right now.
