They're doing it based on engagement? Great.. it's just going to surface the jokes. Seriously, there's a lot of important information that passes through our slack channels, but, for the most part, we don't "engage" with it in the way they are measuring. We don't react, reply, click on, or share the important messages. We just respond to them in the normal flow of conversation.

The jokes, wit, and quips on the other hand... those get reacted to. So there's a good chance those are going to be the highlights. Which, while fun, is a complete waste of screen real estate and isn't going to help me be more productive.
