Asynchronous tools like Twist, Discourse, Gameplan any day.

Isn't discourse like a community thing - forums if I'm not mistaken. I'm not sure about the others.

Are they all point to point competitors to slack/ms teams?

Yeah. Those are asynchronous tools. Because 75% of the stuff on Teams/Slack are not urgent ones. We can concentrate more on actual work if we use asynchronous tools.

I have recently switched to slack (after years with MS Teams) and I would pick slack over teams in all features except calls.
Slack huddles are a joke compared to Teams calls and I miss the outlook calendar integration. But with the awesome plugin integration, I can simply avoid huddles and start quick zoom calls with a simple /zoom. In all other features, Slack is easily the better option.

Slack has better chat features. Teams has better office integration.
